Morning y'all and Mels cat to the 20.1 I woke at 6 with
At this moment in time I see a return to Lantus on the horizon as although my HBa1C is showing at 47 I'm 'bouncing' too much for my liking, I was 6.4 at bed time and only had a 90g carbs tea and no supper.
My lunchtime swim's looking very precarious right now...
I agree @helensaramay, as long as there is no malice involved in which a person is teased for being diabetic, or had things stolen like food etc or where someone tries to schedule an interview with the employee in a lunchtime where no one else is given the same timing. I can recall an episode where the receptionist booked a person in the see me but made it during my 1/2 hour lunch time but did not tell me until 5 mins beforehand and I had already taken my before lunch short-acting insulin.
The queue will be getting longer at your toaster . You’re just a temptress
Nah! A taxi driver told me that one. It is a good joke for children, though!!Because they don't like fast food.
Think Kitdoc has Googled 'Dad Joke'
Yeah morning basal now, that moved the drop to an afternoon/teatime and I can handle that, my teatime food is requiring an extra couple of u now, if I move it it'll be to lunchtime but.....20.1yikes hate things like such a pain to correct.
Thought you had changed you Tresiba regime and injected in the morning time?
Would it be worth retrying injecting last thing at night?
I moved mine to the morning and at the moment all things are working OK, I do then to drop really low at lunch time but thats OK I can handle that.
It's the what to do next bit isn't it
split dose is quite appealing at the moment but I've never split basal and aren't particularly enthusiastic about the idea.
I don't know which emoji to use coz I don't understand "get me coat" territory" Think I'll Kyber Pass
I was at 8.3 arrow straight down at that point and think I cracked on with a swift coffee and forgot the jab.
I'm going to take my Tresiba next I think (gulp) so it looks like we've moved to lunchtime without trying, I'm not nervous or anything but it's mad describing a 'flamingo' up to other diabetics without having to translate Some detective work shows that although I entered the basal in the Libre I didn't put the dose, this leads me to believe I entered it as I'd tested and it was my next move
Gulp
@kev-w this is not a fun day for you! I take Lantus and was finding it didn't seem to quite last 24 hours. Like you I was reluctant to split the dose but eventually I did, and found that I need more overnight than during the day. It was a pain to remember when to take it, but phone alarms are a big helpSome detective work shows that although I entered the basal in the Libre I didn't put the dose, this leads me to believe I entered it as I'd tested and it was my next move
Gulp
@Knikki It's the other makers alternative to Novolog (rapid) and takes 30+mins to start, longer if it's dropping a high sugar, recently I've binned a few cartridges mid way as it's not seemed 'right' but then if I'm having an issue with my basal it may not be the Humalog, lifestyle being either full bore or idle could be a issue.
Anyway
10.3 pointing up, half breakfast eaten....
It's helped me flatten things out a lot, so the inconvenience has been worth it for me, although I have had the - here we go - problem of giving the evening does in the morning by mistake which was quite fun for that day! Trying to find ways to make sure I think about what I'm doing when I inject as it's sooooooo easy to forget whether I've actually done it or what amount it should be. And I know there are things you can get to put on pens to record when you've injected but for some reason I just don't want to have to use them....
