hi,
been diabetic 2 months 7 days now. have never really been on much insulin, 1U :20g CHO. 12 u of lantus
all of a sudden in last 10 days, I'm hypoing 3 times a day (not just after meals) or waking up hypo. taken my Lantus down from 12 to 6 still waking up at about 5.0ish.
tonight I had a huge bowl of stuffed pasta worth 80g CHO gave myself 2U (because hypoing so much is peeing me off) no exercise or anything and hypoing within 1 hour
is this honeymooning?
I just got my diabetes under control, learnt the rules of the game and how to play it now Bang! its a completely different game and dont understand the rules!! its really demoralising and depressing.
anyone found a similar thing when they first got the big D?
any idea how/if/when I might return back to the old levels on needing insulin again?
Dave
