Well what can I say with over 41 years experience of diabetes I have been stupid ! Not the first time in my life I might add ,
My blood sugars have been terrible for about the last 3 days , so this morning I awoke with a bs of 14 feeling like ****, so I gave myself some short acting insulin and about 2 hrs later blood sugar was 19 not eaten anything , so I tested my pen ( again) it was then I noticed I’d put my long acting insulin cartridge in my short acting pen , so god knows how much Basel insulin I’ve taken recently , anyways have given myself a good dose of “ proper insulin “ ,
It goes to show that even after 41 years we still can get it wrong , I’m off now to the bathroom to steam up the mirror write stupid on it and stare at it for an hour lol
