[QUOTE="In Response, post: 2395322, member: 527103"] Some good advice above (although I probably would not have panicked you about the basal increase so much). One thing to bear in mind is that we become more insulin resistant when our blood sugars go high so need more bolus to correct. For me, my correction ratio is twice as much over 15 as usual . Another thing to consider is the weather. Some of us need more insulin as it warms up and some need less so you may end up needing more basal. Finally, if you require more basal flexibility because, for example, you need more when premenstrual, Tresiba may not be the best for you. It's flat profile is fantastic if every day's needs are the same. But it is a pain in the proverbial if you need more when premenstrual, less when exercising, more on a week day, less on a weekend, etc. [/QUOTE]
