[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2272295, member: 53162"] Hi and welcome Marta :) I can only speak from experience as I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 7 years ago now, mine was quite far gone when I needed levothyroxine so I was gaining weight, mental ability was about as good as a slug in quicksand, it took me about 3--4 months to get my dose settled in and to start feeling human again, I don't recall any great changes in my insulin requirements during this time, others may have a different experience. Insulin needs can and do change with the weather, change in activity/stress/hormonal levels etc etc, as long as you're ok monitoring and responding accordingly with your insulin changes. Hopefully it's not too much of an issue ? [/QUOTE]
