[QUOTE="azure, post: 1344293, member: 39639"] Hi [USER=303461]@passittotheleft[/USER] If you're sure you're not ill or coming down with something, then the first thing to do is change your insulins just in case the pens/vials you're using have become ineffective. You say you've done this - have you changed both basal and bolus insulins? If your BS is 20, you'll need a higher correction dose. Also bear in mind that it could take three hours until you start to see them come down properly, so keep testing but don't inject more insulin because you don't want to stack doses and then go hypo. Have you tested for ketones? What's your BS now? [/QUOTE]
