[QUOTE="Charles Robin, post: 1092464, member: 92241"] Seeing as you've already changed pens etc these have probably been eliminated but here goes: are you loading the right type of insulin? I had really random swings a few years ago, before realising I was putting short acting insulin into my long acting pen. Next, how old is the insulin? If it's all out of date or has all spent weeks out of the fridge, it might have lost a lot of its effectiveness. Any changes to your food? When you say you're away from home, are you in a different country? If you can, check the nutrition information on what you've been consuming. I once drank flavoured water, but I tried a different brand from usual. Turns out that it was flavoured with sugar. Sorry I can't think of anything else but I hope you get on ok. [/QUOTE]
