[QUOTE="Libbyloo, post: 230774, member: 25200"] Hi Mike & Jay2506, Thanks for your replies. I've been back in touch with the DSN as even when I began to zap in more novo rapid it didn't appear to work that effectively. She was a bit baffled, but I'm now zapping in 2 units of Levemer midday and at night before bedtime (11 pm) which seems to be helping and getting my bgs more levelled out. We think the Levemir may have been running out of steam by the time I ate my dinner at night (approx 7pm) and that may have been why novo rapid wasn't as effective. My unit intake of novo rapid is very small (3 at breakfast, 4 at lunch and either 4 or 5 at dinner depending on the carb content of my meal, and is now similar to the dosages with apidra) as I seem to be really sensitive to insulin which isn't helped by a very low BMI. I also spoke to the pharmacist who confirmed that the apidra compound is very different to novo rapid even though it does the same job, which may be why having Levemir twice appears to help the nov rapid to work. Thanks againd and Best Wishes Libbyloo [/QUOTE]
