[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 578374, member: 102150"] Strictly speaking, if you were on a basal + bolus regime, the basal insulin (Levemir) should neither raise nor lower your blood sugar, it should just keep it the same. However at the moment you are on a long acting only regime so I guess it should take care of food as well. You could try taking a small one off extra dose of Levemir and see if it reduces your blood sugar. However if your level is stuck around 10-11, it's possible that your blood sugar is being regulated by your kidneys dumping excess glucose into your urine. Not ideal. What is your diabetes care team telling you? [i]Miraculously sent via Diabetes Forum App. Probably on the 4th or 5th try :-/[/i] [/QUOTE]
