Hi
Went across to see the Dr this morning as I have been having varying needs in my insulin, reckon its hormonal and high readings in the morning. This has been going on for some time now and seems to be progressing, some mornings I can get up and my readings are around five sometimes fifteen. the Dr reckons its a problem with the Lantus, that it might not be working for me, although it did when I was first put on it. Initially I was on Levimir but I had an allergic reaction to it and it dissolved the fat on my thighs. I phoned the diabetic nurse and she says I am to split my BI dose and see how I get on, I already tried this and it didn't work, but she insisted I tried it again. I was wondering what other alternatives there are to the Lantus having already tried Levimir.
