Type 1 diabetes

Hi and welcome!
I've been on Lantus for years, 18 units per day injected before breakfast. Lantus doesn't make me hungry. If you are newly diagnosed, and trying to ditch the HI'S it could be that you are changing your diet and missing foods you used to enjoy? Lots of people on here will be able to share their experiences of controlling their blood sugar. The carb-counting course you've been offered will be a good start, but there are many useful threads here to read.

Hi!

I am on about the same lantus as you at night time, no extra hunger but I have been using it for 7 years or so, could have been different at the start!

What I do get is quite severe, burning pain sometimes from it - almost as if my body is allergic once it is injected?! But, as I say not all the time, very odd!

Anyway, welcome I am new to the forum myself and am finding it really useful and full of lovely people
