Hi. Can we get back to your original post. Did your DN really tell you to reduce your Basal? If so I'm afraid I would do the opposite if your blood sugar is too high you INCREASE your insulin. I think splitting your insulin might make getting the balance more complicated at this time although many do it to get a flatter profile but you then need to work out the split ratio. Try to get the Basal right first. Although several posters have indicated the best way to work out what you need you can get it approximately right by adjustung Basal until your morning fasting is between 5 to 7 mmol. You make very small adjustmens day by day using the meter to avoid hypos; this is how I do it. What is your BMI? If higher than it should be it will make insulin dose adjustment difficult due to insulin resistance. A low-carb diet will help with this. I'm obviously guessing a bit and there may well be several other factors at play here but I'm not convinced changing to Levemir will make a big difference, but it would not do any harm to change to it.
Well my dsn checked my tummy sites and said they were ok. Does the insulin injected into lumpy bits suddenly release?! How terrifying.
It's called lipohypertrophy and the condition can alter the absorption of Insulin. I've got this, but I have been injecting for 25 years, so I use other area's. Just reading your posts and you are still very high, I really feel for you.Hope you get it sorted out very soon.
Best wishes RRB
