[QUOTE="Hertfordshiremum, post: 2063995, member: 507802"] Thank you so much everyone for your replies. You have all given me a lot of very useful information. Marie 2 you really describe exactly what is happening to me, it’s very erratic, probably as you say some days I don’t have any natural insulin and other days I do. I actually think this is varying within the same day. A different diabetic nurse has called me back this morning and she thinks 5 units of Levemir every day is too much! She has told me to hold off as when it goes low she is worried I will have a hypo. I will wait and see what my usual diabetic nurse says next week but they have booked me for another appointment at the local hospital in 2 weeks time. I am in Hertfordshire and am not entitled to a continuous blood glucose monitor, awful that this is a postcode lottery, I did have a trial one, libre, back in March and thought it fantastic. I avoided all hypos ( I have had 3 in the last couple of months and often come close) and avoided going too high. I hope criteria changes for Hertfordshire. [/QUOTE]
