[QUOTE="smidge, post: 515524, member: 29301"] Hi Debbiiee! Yes that is a problem for early stage LADA. when I first went onto insulin, I was on 4 units of intermediate a day - the impact was miraculous. My pancreas decided to work better again and I ended up taking a single unit every two or three days. Even that amount made such a big difference. If I didn't take it my BG rose gradually over the days. I've been on insulin 4 and a half years now and still take relatively small doses although far more than the early days. Usually a total daily dose of around 20 units (basal and bolus added together) depending on what I eat. I'm really glad I went onto insulin when I did. Smidge [/QUOTE]
