[QUOTE="Erin85, post: 956409, member: 160454"] Hi Suicidal_Tissue! It sounds like a similar situation to mine. I'm nearly 9months diagnosed and thought my honeymoon was over (insulin needs slowly increased over a period of weeks/months), however, now getting by with no fast acting insulin and only 3units/night of background insulin. I started a thread on it a few weeks ago (entitled 'Frustrated', if you want to have a look at my responses) and a forum member mentioned that she was still honeymooning after 7yrs!! As advised above, I would touch base with your diabetic team, just to make sure they are happy with your current insulin regime. Even 9months in, I am still confused on how to figure out if my basal rate is right, and although there are plenty of links on the forum to advise you how to do this, I still check with my nurse who can reassure me whether my rate is right or not. Good luck and enjoy the honeymoon :) [/QUOTE]
