Have been having a very frustrating few months trying to keep my levels balanced. Wondering if all you knowledgeable lot could throw in some suggestions.
Diagnosed type 1 three years ago at the age of 54. Had a brother for support who was 35 years in to this roller coaster. Retirement 14 months ago doesn't seem to have helped as life is so more erratic now. Have done DAFNE and eat healthily. Average 150 carbs a day.
I take Toujeo 7 units in the evening and Humalog. My problem is if I fast during the day to test my basal then my levels rise into the teens. During the night they drop, some nights to hypo level.
I also have high weeks and low weeks even though doing nothing different.
Thanks in anticipation.
