[QUOTE="Anthea1948, post: 884156, member: 187427"] Thanks for your response, Urbanracer. Blood sugar levels are still high, around 10, but spoke to the diabetes nurse today and she's increased the insulin dose by two units. My husband seems to be getting better at giving the injection and it was much less painful last night (still can't bring myself to do it). I'm injecting in my thigh, simply because that seems easiest. I had to look 'ketones' up as I didn't know what they were (can you tell I'm new to this?!) and no, I'm not checking for them. But maybe the frequent weeing is them being flushed out and that will settle down, we'll see. I'll be speaking to the diabetes nurse again next week so I can report to her if there are still problems. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
