Hi there I’m Stacey nearly 30.
For the last 4 years I thought I was type 2 after going to the drs recently due to bad guts on a constant bases the idea was to get off metaformin and onto gliczimide (sp?). My current surgery is not where I was originally diagnosed so my current GP looks back through my notes and finds my previous surgery we’re thinking about doing the antibodies test along side another one which they never did!
So current GP did them and results came back without a fraction of a doubt I am type one but still producing some of my own insulin. Got started on one slow release insulin only 4 units. Went to the hospital for the consultation with the specialists they changed my slow release to a different type and at 5 units (not a lot I know) along side quick acting at meal times. (Only onto day three of the regime) I’m finding before lunch I’m borderline hypo then post food I’m borderline keto levels same on an evening.
My injection sites are itchy and red but only on one thigh. Having intermittent blurry vision and I’m close to tears all the time. Are these three things common? Seeing the nurse practitioner this morning but just feel I need advice from people who have gone through it as well.
Thanks in advance
