Hi Daniela.

Very good start register in the forum to start having tools that help you in the control of diabetes.

So that we can help you and advise you, it would be very good for you to tell us a little what your day to day is with the control of diabetes.I mean the type of life you carry (how many controls you make you up to date, if you know how to count hydrates, type and dose of insulin, what exercise do you do, etc.)

I hope that among all we can help you improve that hemoglobin triggered and little by little and especially with your desire to get it, you can find yourself better in the shortest possible time.

Also tell us whether you visit the endocrin@ usually or not.

All the best.

But what value do you wake up?Are you getting Lantus at night?Maybe it's better to put it in the morning, to be able to increase it without having nocturnal hypoglycemia
You surely need to increase the doses of all insulins, but increasing 10 units of blow is very dangerous. They should increase from one by one unit, until adjusting.Start by adjusting the Lantus until you get up with good values.Tell the endocrine of putting it in the morning.

And give you a table to count rations of carbohydrates and adjust the fast units before each meal.Do you get a novorapid before all meals, right?
Ask what you want, to see if we can help you.

Well Daniela, do not despair woman, the most important thing is to want to remedy our "bad guns" with diabetes.

If you are going to see the endocrine shortly, eat whether there are educators in diabetes in the hospital where they normally see you or in some close.
It is super interesting to learn to count carbohydrates by rations, know how to calculate your sensitivity factor and the insulin ratio by ration that your body needs at each meal.

If by chance there were no educators who teach you or go to check it with your endocrine, let me know and try to send you all the information and knowledge that they have provided to me and my classmates in the courses that have taught us at the Virgen del Hospital of the Virgen del Virgen delRocío de Sevilla.The existing medical team in the day hospital here is simply ma ran llo so.

Greetings Daniela.

Hi Regina, thanks for writing first of all, look sometimes I get up with glycemias of 300 and 180 sometimes one end to the other, I have very disorganized my diabetes, I apply it for the maniana also (20 units) and I decided to applyThe night (10 more units).I do not get a novorapid before meals, only when I have more than 150. If the previous doctor explains how to correct myself 150 to 200 (2 u novorapid) 200 to 250 (4u novorapid) 250 to 300 (6u novorapid) and so on.
I have no idea what the count of carbohydrates !!

A question .. I started at 14 years with the NPH, then they medicated me with Lantus, at that time it was one of the best ... there are any more advanced or better ???
Another question may be in different parts of the body that insulin does more or less effect ???Let's say where do you have more fat can later the effect?

Daniela, if you don't get a novorapid before meals, you've already said everything.
You will never be able to control your glucose levels if you do not meet fast insulin food.
You urgently need knowledge recycling.

Hi Daniela.

I imagine that you will know that we must rotate as much as possible the insulin injection zones, to avoid what is known as "lipodystrophy", which is the hardening of the injection zone, causing the insulin bolus not to be absorbed properly.

Also comment on the endocrine and that you give you the right guidelines according to your situation in this regard.

If it happened to me that parts of my belly hardened by putting me so often ..., then I started rotating them ..
I feel very bad and sad it makes more than ten years I live with this disease and I thought I knew everything and I don't know anything ... for me it was only sweet, do not smoke, do not eat so much hydrates and make physical act ....

Daniela, the best place to put the lantus is the buttock.
Putting only Lantus you will never be able to control yourself well.That insulin only covers the basal needs of the body, but quick insulin is needed to assimilate the hydrates of each meal.Find out better of all this and do contolos before and after meals.
Surely you need less Lantus and a novorapid unit for each ration of carbohydrates you eat.
Look in my firm the insulin guideline of my daughter, each diabetic is different, but you can give you an idea of ​​what is a treatment with Lantus and fast.(Humalog is equivalent to the novorapid)
I hope the endocrine knows how to give you a good treatment and really know how the lantus acts, as a flat basal insulin.

Thanks Regina, obviously they are giving me the same opinion of getting a noirpid before meals, perfect, I understand a little more, I just found the list of foods with their gr of carbohydrates, I have to calculate according to what I am readingThe grams that I am going to consume at each meal, according to these grams is the placement of the dose of novorapid, you could tell me maso less every thing grams goes from insulin units, and it applies before eating a certain specific time as an examplean hour before lunch ... or later ??And if my food will not have hydrates churrasco with salad there is no need to put the novorapid truth .. I ask you how to have an idea ... until I can see my endocrinologist on April 25 if God wants
