I’m newly diagnosed about 3 months in and Lantus seems to have no effect on my BG and I’m a bit puzzled as I’m not sure if it’s the honeymoon or not (not everyone gets a honeymoon).
On some days I don’t inject Lantus and my BG doesn’t really rise apart from a mild increase after meals (I still bolus fully for all my meals and any snacks I eat without a bolus increases my BG so it’s not like my pancreas is helping me)
I’m just a bit confused because no matter if I inject 0 units or 14 units it seems to have no effect. From my understanding if there is any endogenous insulin production and you inject exogenous insulin then you will get hypos but I am yet to have any and just to check if I may any insulin sometimes I don’t take bolus and eat carbs and my BG rises exactly how I expected it to.
Do I have something wrong with my liver for it to cease glucose production or something
