[QUOTE="SteveB66, post: 543045, member: 38437"] Hi and thanks for your reply. As mentioned earlier, my DSN seems to think that the issue is with the 70% slow-release side of this insulin. So if you're taking high doses of it, it won't just impact on short-relaease but also have a longer impact which could cause hypos - in my case, I appear to have them every night (I'm waking now on 12 - 15s). So she suggested I lower the insulin dosage and eat more carbs so that the insulin has something to work on. So I tried this but it's just not doing anything. And if I'm on a high BG reading, I tend to want minimum carb intake. And I have tried taking more which does produce better results that what I'm experiencing now but still not within the normal scope. I know that when I see her later, she'll probably insinuate that this is my fault (but not in a nasty way) for not doing what she's asked, but I know that this insulin is not working anymore. Interesting to note about the injection sites - I did try my arms as well but it didn't cause a change in my readings. We shall see what happens!!! [/QUOTE]
