[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 2076741, member: 468714"] Hi [USER=147474]@pinewood[/USER], From past experiences as a TID, not as health professional opinion or advice: infection can do it every time if severe enough. Also sometimes our nerves do not always convey the amount of pain we expect from a sore tooth, unless we happen to bite hard enough on the area or it reacts to drink a cool or hot beverage. In a way high bsls may be the particular signal that us diabetics notice to indicate something is wrong. The problem with Tresiba is that it is so long acting that it takes a longer while to get with the action of reducing blood sugars than other long-acting insulins. You really need to be in close contact with your nurse and doctor to talk through what to do about your diabetes management, diet and insulin - in order to prevent a worse situation. It may be worth measuring your ketones if you have the meter and special strips which allow this to be done. If you do not have this facility, then perhaps also ask your nurse about how to sort this out. It is also usual to have a sick day plan, which swings into action when these type of situations, which you posted about, occur. After you have sorted this present situation out with your nurse/doctor/dentist (and the dentist's treatment does the trick)! you will have the opportunity to update or devise a sick day plan so that the next time will be easier to manage. Best Wishes for a quick resolution to your problem and a return to better bsls !! [/QUOTE]
