I've just been put onto insulatard overnight insulin, in addition to my 2x80mg daily Gliclazide.
The DN told me that Insulatard would lower my fasting BG. So far, it has not, and 'm up to 34 units a night.
The DN acknowledges that it is not the food I'm eating (LC) that is causing my BG to rise in the morning - so my question is: Is Insulatard the best way to lower fasting BGs?
34 units seems like a lot of insulin to not have an effect...
