DM 1 and treatment with corticosteroids

In a previous low back pain and in another similar current injury, the treatment is injection of corticosteroids... the glucose is always through the roof even when tripling the usual doses of insulin and supplementing between meals... has anyone found something effective?...

I am on corticosteroids in a vein on Fridays and in pills on Saturdays and Sundays.The effects last until Wednesday.48 hours since the last shot.

The endocrine told me to double basal, and triple rapid.

The best value I have achieved is 160 but it does not go over 300.

It's trial and error.

You have less left, Ruthbia.

Good luck, you will be fine for Christmas.

Thanks @Regina, this chemo works much better for me, without side effects.

Fatal glucose, yes.

On January 30th I will have my last cycle.Little by little.
