[QUOTE="pinewood, post: 2076636, member: 147474"] [FONT=Arial]I’ve been experiencing much higher blood sugar levels for the past 2-3 days and I cannot understand why because: [/FONT] [LIST=1] [*][FONT=Arial]No illness and I feel fine;[/FONT] [*][FONT=Arial]I am stressed, but no more than usual;[/FONT] [*][FONT=Arial]I have tried changing my insulin vials and pens.[/FONT] [/LIST] [FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial][FONT=Arial]Basically, my bolus requirements have more than tripled – I’m now running at about 1u:5g of carbs whereas before I was around 1u:15g.[/FONT][/FONT] I’ve increased my Tresiba from 14U to 20U but, so far, no effect. My levels are especially stubborn over night. I have been doing slightly less exercise than usual but I went for a long run on Friday and my blood sugars Friday evening and overnight were sky high and it seemed like no amount of bolus would get them down (I must have had nearly 15U of NovoRapid during Friday night – I only got back into range at 8am) [FONT=Arial] Any advice? Should I be worried?[/FONT] Maybe it’s the end of my (long) honeymoon; I was dx’d in December 2014 so it has been nearly 5 years now. I’m really at a loss. I guess I will just keep increasing my Tresiba dose...[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
