[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1648806, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=461191]@emmawhit32[/USER] When things go astray you need to go back to basics, so write a food/insulin/BG diary, recording information like this helps to look for patterns, it will also help you when you do get to sit down with your nurse to review what's going on. I would also try doing some basal testing, it's easy to do and will be able to help you work out what's happening with your basal requirements: [URL]http://www.salforddiabetescare.co.uk/index2.php?nav_id=1007[/URL] getting your basal requirements right is the foundation for good control. It may well be the case that your basal insulin isn't right for you but basal testing will help you identify what is going on - the testing can be broken down into 4 time frames and to really see what's going on you need to check each time period 3 times. Make sure your nurse prioritises you and tell them you desperately need help, please also remember this is temporary things will improve so try not to feel too down, it will come right again, feel free to message me if I can help more.
