[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2508572, member: 372717"] I haven't used it personally, but my understanding is that tresiba is very slow acting (several days) so changing it to try to change short term levels is counter productive. If your levels stay steady overnight then hopefully you're about right on the tresiba. (That's assuming you are going to bed without carbs or short acting insulin in your system). I have heard that you need to wait a few days to see how a changed dose of tresiba affects you. The idea is that the tresiba holds you steady when you aren't doing anything else. As for the blood testing, you could ask for a libre next time you visit your clinic, as they are theoretically now rolling them out for all T1s (but don't hold your breath). [/QUOTE]
