Just wondering if anyone else struggled to get Tresiba to match their body's needs? I used to be on 2x Levemir (18u in the morning and 12 at night). My consultant assured me the different doses wouldn't be a problem with Tresiba.
I started on 22u taken in the evening, but kept dropping a LOT overnight (around 5/6mmol) so I've been gradually reducing it. I'm now at only 14u and my nights are a lot flatter, but I now keep rising between meals during the day.
I'll try a fasting test tomorrow, but in the meantime I was wondering if anyone else had found the same? My A1C has actually increased since starting Tresiba and I'm getting a lot more hypos, so at this rate I would have been better off staying on Levemir!
