[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2279065, member: 21149"] Hi. Can I assume you are keeping the carbs down? As [USER=480869]@HSSS[/USER] says it's always possible you are a T1 and there are the two tests for that. You are currently on twice-a-day mixed insulin which is good but not as flexible as the 4 to 5 times a day Basal/Bolus regime which you could ask for if the mixed isn't working. With the latter you adjust the meal-time insulin to take account of the carbs in the meal which gives very good control. You can still change the dose of the mixed insulin and it sounds like it may need to be increased. Talk to the nurse about that. [/QUOTE]
