[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 1948252, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=491656]@Aknitty[/USER], From my experience as a T1D, not as professional advice or opinion: Why the change from levemir? Just because Tresiba is newer does not mean is is necessarily better? (And doctors do like to try out new things). From looking at the profiles of both insulins including their length of action: in terms of altering and adjusting doses, Tresiba is like an ocean liner, a change in the rudder (dose) can take 4 to 6 days to show a change in course (effect), Levemir is more like a Navy boat, 48 hours to show change, Being on an insulin pump, even quicker. You should have very quick access to your health team and waiting 3 weeks is unsatisfactory. Please ring them up and speak with them. You are pregnant so need to be afforded the most immediate care.
