[QUOTE="Carolin, post: 1904812, member: 443750"] Hi Juicyj, no fatty meals, just wholemeal carbs (rice, pasta, other grains) and vegetables. Sometimes pulses. It doesn't really seem to matter what he eats - for example, a dinner of scrambled eggs and peppers has the same effect as, say, a plate of pasta. Exercise has stayed the same, he rotates injection sites (but injects in his arms, mainly) and he has moved the evening Levemir injection to 6 pm (from 10 pm; mornings at 6 am). Re Tresiba - once risen (the rise takes about an hour), his levels remain flat throughout the night if he doesn't correct, I thought that suggested that the basal insulin was fine? Very happy to stand corrected. And would a different basal insulin somehow make the short-acting insulin more effective (as mentioned above, corrections don't seem to work, or work extremely slowly, at night. All good during the day though)? [/QUOTE]
