surely you put it intramuscular, if you are thin and you put it in your leg that has enough muscle, it may have happened to youthat.The slow is recommended in the PQ gluteus, it is also freely released during the day.
I put on Tresiba but I do not take the trick, I have been for years and I am more or less good for a few weeks and suddenly, it gets out of control, especially at night.
Someone who has used threeiba and changed to Toujeo and his experience? Has it better?

I went from Tougeo to Tresiba because Tougeo did not cover my night well .. clicking it in the morning or I went high or to hip and the doctor told me that precisely the changes of Tougeo to Tresiba were done for that reason because threeiba is more stable.

What can I tell you both for me and by colleagues who use it, is that it is so "soft" that any excess is paid expensive ... as goals a high day of protection or fats .. hyper sustained and costs more to lower itThat with other insulins ... not everything can be good ...

Who has used for example Lantus, if it allows eating more with less climbs but of course ... more unstable.

Many times we focus only on insulin and in the end it is the sum of nutrition, exercise and medication.

I agree with you, diet and exercise avoids many doses of insulin and better control.Thank you

From now on I am using the strategy of 9 units in losing and 9 in another place, to avoid that of that day, two punctures, one behind the other

4 days ago they changed me to Toujeo.I used it, so many years ago.

I was putting two Insulatard injections (because one did not cover me 24h), but my new endocrine watching the peaks that I had again sent me Toujeo.
Absolute chaos.I don't know what to do.He added the two doses of Insulatard and that guideline sent me as Toujeo ... I am still putting 4unds.more than that recommended me and some hyscines inooorores.
I don't know what to do...
What a disgust I have, the truth ...
I think many unds.In a single dose, and on top of my day I spend the day correcting myself with fast and as if it were water.😢🥺

@Silviagrz, but you will get fast on meals.You will have to climb the fast and eat low in hydrates.Toujeo works better., and does not admit meals between hours unless you put fast.
In return it is quite stable and avoids hypos, and if there are backs with very few hydrates.It also covers over 24 hours.
Let's see if you manage to justice doses of slow and fast.

@Regina yes, yes, I put fiaps.But it has changed me to the HC ratio.
I hope to adjust it ... but it does not seem normal that I am putting 48unds and it does not go well ...
And fast the same ... I became very little and nothing that is shooting ... 😭🥺
Not even the correction ratio works for me.
I've been for 4 days and I don't know if leaving it ... in the sensor the glyd has uploaded a lot ...

@Silviagrz: insulin changes are not usually simple but if your endocrine has changed your reason to Toujeo.Forget about the units you put in Insulatard and start with Toujeo as if you had never used it.Patience and see little by little.Wait two or three days to go up or down the Toujeo units.And careful with hypos since as @regina has told you, if you don't have active fast insulin, they date back to very little HC.A little to go go up like a rocket. You'll tell us

@Ricki21 @regina thanks for the moods really.
They are discouraging to see that all the work has been thrown out ofboard and see 200-300 ...
In PPO.It is to improve the gyrose because I was 6'9 and they gave me hypos and with two doses I didn't get 24h ...
But ... Puff ... I'm having a bad time ... and I don't see this end.
Above the usual ... they see me in 3-4 months and while ...

If, in those 3 or 4 we desperate, they give us feathers in "paint and color" plan as if it were easy.I hope you find the point with the new changes !!!!

@Silviagrz When I changed Toujeo it cost me a month to give the dose.At first there were many units, but then you have to start down.
It is very stable, I am happy.

Do not despair, I already told you that Insulatatd is very old and gives many peaks and that sooner or later they would change it to you, I think that better even if it costs you a month or more adapt to the dose.These insulins (Toujeo and Tresiba, and more three), are so flat that they need a low hydrates diet, I don't know if you do it but not, you must do it because it is not, it's crazy.Cdo do it like this and stabilize, surely you begin to download doses.Much encouragement !!

Good, this happened to me yesterday, from 190 to 60 in 20 minutes, it was crazy, I saw it on time on the clock but I was very scared and I took 2 gluc up sudden.At midnight in 300, but it has a very bad time ..

My technique is now 10 in the buttock and then the remaining 5 in one arm.Yesterday I had the conversation with my doctor and took my hands to the head

I always put it on the leg but now that I read you all I have to try to give it in the buttock so that this does not happen to me, fear gives me, because I was in 190, I became at 100 or so and I do not knowWhat would have happened ...

The same thing happened to me ... in my leg it was, it caught me at 120 and after a while in half novhe at 300. I ate ice cream and everything, often scare

Hello!Does anyone know why this can happen?
A few days ago the same thing happened to me with 20 of Tougeo in my leg.I went from 240 to 70 in 20/30 minutes.
I reached about 32 who did not go up and had to use glucagon ... I was horrible.

I have read here that it can be to prick the muscle or blood but I understood that with the needles of 4 mm it is very difficult to occur.

How is possible?
After 5 years in this and now I am taking true terror when I put on the slow one. :(

We are several that happened to us right in the same place, the leg.They have recommended me in my ass, I am doing so and anyway I do not play it to the same letter, if I put 15 of Toujeo, first for example I put 10 in the ass and the other 5 in one arm.And if it happens ... Almenos will be with 10 or 5 units, something more bearable.

In the buttock it is very safe with small needles.
You must also check that the sensor does not deceive.

The basal always in the buttocks.
It is the slow zone of absorption.
I use Toujeo 6 years ago and I have never caught vein or capillary.

In my case, it happened to me in his day with Toujeo and with Tresiba .. and I can tell you that with threeiba the scare is much smaller .. with Toujeo I hits you a soup that leaves you trembling.

Reset if you need and look again as the puncture should be done, take pinch .. long needles etc ...

I ended up putting 44 of Tresiba and put 22 and 22 .. the same technique of the partner.We think the same hehe

Use 5mm small needles.If you use 8, or 12mm tilt the needle or catch pechizco.
