was diagnosed in 2001 as having type 2 diabetes. Took tablets and diet control initially. Then was put on Novomix, worked up to 30 units am and pm, plus metformin, rosliglitlizide and another tablet which I can not remember. Blood sugars seem to be levelled. Am was reading 8.1 lunch time was 3.9 to 4.8 and before teatime they were reading between 6 and 7, at bed time they were about 7.5 to 8. Now been put on Novorapid and Levemir, 10 units of Novorapid morn, noon and evening and then 20 units of Levemir before bed. Now blood sugars are reading 8.1 am, 6.6 lunchtime and 8.7 tea time. These appear to be much higher than before. I now have to contact a pharmacist next week with blood sugar readings and if necessary he will authorise alterations to insulin - ARE THEY ALLOWED TO DO THIS? Diabetic Nurse and GP related and feel as though I am going round in circles. Can anyone give me advice on where I can go for advice on this matter. PLEASE
