- HIGH blood sugars!
I'm having problems with high blood sugars before meals and then my post Neal blood sugars are usually fine but then about 4 hours after I eat my blood sugars goes up to about 11.
So whenever I don't have rapid acting insulin in me and I'm relying on lantus my blood sugar rises!!
It's very annoying because I inject 18 units of lantus now and I still have the problem.
My hba1c is 5.1% (32) and I like it there and I'm annoyed because this is going to make it rise.
Is there anything j can do to stop this problem other than always injecting novo rapid 2 hours after I've eaten because that's what I'm having to do. I'm currently doing about 3 to 4 correction doses of insulin a day just to keep it down.
As people on this forum know I'm very afraid of highs and it's not making my life very enjoyable and I'll resort back to lows if this continues so if anyone here could offer any advice that would be most helpful.
