Hello, sorry to ask another question, but all of this diabetes is so confusing!
I have been put on 6 units of Abasaglar (slow release) insulin to take before bed whilst I await my peptide/islet tests to come back to confirm either type 1 or type 2.
Last night was the first night. Prior to bed my blood glucose was 12.6 and when I woke up they were still 12.6.
I felt slightly disappointed as I had hoped they they would have some effect strait away. Does it usually take a few nights before you see any effect of the insulin?
Sorry if this is a very stupid question but I feel disappointed that everything I do doesn’t seem to get me to normal levels! (Changed to low carb already and on metformin 2000mg a day).
