[QUOTE="Jackie1966, post: 143078, member: 27589"] [b]Re: VICTOZA[/b] There's something I dont quite understand and I'm hoping some people might be able to pass some comments please. My waking readings have always been a good low, say 3.9/4.6 or something like that, and I've always felt ok and managed them fine. But lately, since I've been on Victoza (0.6) they've been much higher - 5.7, 5.9 and this morning it was 6.7! And I can't understand why this is happening...?? I prefer the lower readings at the start of my day, because that then starts me off in good stead for the rest of the day, for when I eat food. I had 3 Wheetabix with skimmed milk and a sprinkling of canderel type sugar the other morning, my waking reading was a high (for me) 5.7 and so it went up to a whopping 13.9 two hours later when I checked again. I've been on the 0.6 Victoza dose for 2 weeks now, reduced my once a day, evening lantus insulin by 20 units (from 80 to 60) as instructed by my nurse, and today is my first day on 1.2. Thanks for any help or advice, I'd really appreciate it if you could spare some time Kind regards Jackie [/QUOTE]
