Hi all,
I have been t1 diabetic for almost 20yrs now so am a bit of a veteran. For awhile i have been suffering night time hypos and waking up in the high teens whilst using lantus.
At a review i was offered a chance to try toujeo which i was told was longer acting (the full 24 hrs) and might help. I have been using this for a week. Woke up on the last 3 mornings in the mid 20's. I have had a cold but my daytime results have been fine after correction.
I am wondering if i might get "dawn phenomena" (i think that is the term)?
The doctor told me that he was unaware of what the general consensus was re the best time to inject etc. I have been injecting in the morning so maybe night would be best?
Has anyone been using toujeo longer? What are your experiences? I have ramped up my dose from 30 units to 40 to see if my control improves.
Many thanks!
