[QUOTE="RussG, post: 235322, member: 30691"] Hi Loubylou, It does take a little while to get your levels down but by the sounds of those numbers your insulin doses do need to come up as the insulin works pretty much right away. However, illnesses do very often make your sugars go up. I would imagine that when you see the consultant you'll also see a specialist diabetes nurse who will be able to advise you on adjusting levels. You'll feel even better when the numbers come down even more. The standard advise Daisy gave you will also help keep things on an even keel if you can reduce your carbohydrate intake - however if you're breastfeeding you will need to watch this and the standard advice is not to reduce carb intake too much.
