Would love a half unit pen for the Tresiba Karen. That post was on about the Timesulin pen top to let you know when you last removed the lid https://timesulin.com/shop/ I have the worlds worst memory
 
Hello, coincidentally I just made a quick visit, and see @Fairygodmother and @Knikki are wondering where I am.

I had to leave you for a bit. I am a very very naughty secret brexit supporter, and I feared things might get difficult, and I had to go to twitter, and do my duty there, during this difficult time. Big fan of the nation state, and believe the euro pushes the EU further and further into reducing sovereignty for member states, in support of a currency we don't use.

Anyway, enough of that.

Not much happening blood sugar wise, sometimes good, sometimes less good. How is everyone, I see @Mel dCP has successfully passed something, and got a very smart looking ID card. What else has been going on?
 
I’m not sure, but have a few people posted similar experiences when switching to Fiasp. If I recall the speed and ferocity of Fiasp tends to dissipate as your body becomes accustomed to using it.
There again I could have been dreaming.
 
Re Fiasp. Have not had to change my basal or alter my bolus amounts. I still have to pre bolus about half an hour before eating. However, it has definitely kept me on a more even keel. It seems to work well for the three hours it is meant to. What I have found is it is not good if I have risen too high, usually because of Adrenalin fuelled exercise. It takes forever to shift it. On balance I am happy with it, but I wished it worked even faster.
 

Very relieved you’re ok.
 
Hi @helensaramay think with all changes we make it will be trial and error for a week or so until it all settles down. Good luck with Fiasp, let us know how you are getting on
 
Hi @helensaramay
I have been using Fiasp for nearly a year now and can confirm your basal will defo need to stay down I wasn’t on much to start with 4/6 now I’m on 2.5/2.5. The Fiasp works so much faster I also don’t have to inject 30mins before I eat, apart from at breakfast I still have to wait 15minsbut it’s much more manageable. The only draw back is that I have had a reaction to it, my feet and lower legs swell up so I have had to start taking water retention tablets but even that’s not to bad as they initially said 2 tablets a day but I take about 2 a week.

Good luck

I was sleeping really deeply until half an hour ago to find the roof leaking into my bedroom... husband in the loft trying to sort it out while I sit at the top of the stairs waiting...
