[QUOTE="buffyiscool, post: 1682452, member: 402065"] Not really sure I can answer your question, not up to speed on this lantus etc stuff) but I am on Humulin I (slow-release insulin) currently at 39 units in morning. Was told by dietician/insulin specialist that once I hit 40 units in morning then if readings high at evening then I should start at 2 units and increase both morning and night-time doses by 10% every 3 days until reading between 6 and 10 (she gave me a margin as my bloods have nearly always been high). If I reach 60 units of Humulin I in the morning then I've to ring my local specialist diabetic team to be switched to Humulin M3 (rapid-release insulin). Maybe speak to your healthcare/diabetic team and tell them your concerns. Sorry, my response probably doesn't answer your question. Hope you get sorted. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
