I've had a few occasions now where I've tested and got an OK result, then taken my levimir as usual and found myself hypo not long after. The other evening I was driving home so tested before getting in the car, 8.2. Drove the 5 minutes home, made a cuppa and took my levimir. Around 15 minutes later I felt not quite right so tested again, now 2.6!
My first thought the first time this happened was that I'd taken novorapid by mistake, however I now have a novopen echo which records the last use so I know that at least the last couple of occasions that is not the issue. The two readings the other night were on different meters, but even so, I have checked them out with control solution and both are fine.
Could I have have hit a spot where the levimir was asborbed to fast? Is that even possible with long acting insulin?
