Have been on insulin for just over a month now and still juggling.
I am now injecting 40 units of Lantus at bedtime and its giving me a waking level of between 5.5 and 8.2, I'm concerned that 40 units is a lot as I was started on just 12.
DN wants me to concentrate on getting overnight sorted first before I start adjusting my Novorapid though I have started increasing my dinnertime shot as I hoped that if I could keep my level down in the evening I wouldnt need so much overnight, sadly I seem to elevate a lot during the night!!
Anyone in similar position?
