@"emily" I fear that we have saturated you with information.
When I debuted I had the drop and 5 days in a row with the educators at a rate of 2-3 hours a day with them.Then I learned that the head of the Endocrinology Unit of my city, at that time Toledo, is type 1 diabetic so it is a very sensitized unit with us, and give priority to all debuts.
They also gave me a fixed food diet that basically forced me to eat the same amount of hydrates at the same time of the day and put a fixed insulin guideline for them to see how the subject was working.Now I do it alone like all the foreros, and the endocrine simply listens to me and verifies that there is nothing weird in my values.
The initial values that gave me were between 80-140m g/dl, now they have dropped me from 140 to 130mg/dl.
Do not overwhelm.Always try to eat at the same hours, the same amounts of carbohydrates combining the different meals with the tables that pass you.Initially it will be the only way you learn to see how the novorapid works for good or badly.
As they told you in other messages, the important thing is that at 2 hours after having eaten between 80 and 140, if not you put little novorapid.They have already told you how to calculate how much depending on the value of glucose before eating.And that can be put more after eating to go down to normal values.
If you get up above 140 more than 3 days in a row, it is that the Toujeo has also been low and you should put 1 or 2 more units during the next 3 days to see if you get up with values close to the desirable threshold.And if you are still high the next 3 days then to rise again.If you get up short, about 80 or less, you must lower the toujeo.
In principle, your SS Heer doctor will prescribe all the insulin that you need without problems, what they always dribble are glucose and lancet strips.That is that it is pure negotiation.
This is a roll and is always based on proof and error.The endocrine sets fixed guidelines for them to see that "test-error", but over time you realize that you can do it since it is your body and before anything we do badly, they are not at that time to help us.
I encourage your next intervention, and calm.
You have little with this and it is normal for you to overwhelm, frustres and despair.
It has happened to us all and happens to us.
(Yesterday I was in the doctor for a cold and I told him that I wanted to be "normal" , that I am tired of catching everything since I am diabetic when I have never been sick before in my life; you see .... we also have crisis)
Hello.As I said, I have given information, or initial values, or a fixed diet.Slow insulin must obviously be insufficient because I never get up with normal values, I am high since I get up until I go to bed;Now I have been having a lot of days with values of more than 200, between 230 and 280, but I have also had days, before, with values when I lift around 158. I have not dared to touch the insulin dose, because asI say, the one I have will not arrive.Now I have a single toujeo pen and it does not reach me until the next dispensation, but I have taken time with the header draDose of insulins in the recipe, to put it on demand;Notice that for the novorapid he put me 15 u.Every 24h, and I sudden 12 units many times ...
I am eating the same virtually every day since I returned from the hospital (in the hospital I was always high too, I never had normal values in 35 days I was) and theWhile they are always high fluctuate a lot and I have no idea why.
When you say "... and that can be put more after eating to go down to normal values."What do you mean exactly?Can you prick insulin just after eating, or at two hours?Two hours after eating I am never between 80 and 140, come on, at 80 I have never been, nor 90, nor 100 ...
Here the lancets do not enter the SS, the needles enter, that racanean, they tell me that I use a needle by pen, although in the same box it already says that they are not reusable, the strips enter, that you already know the problem that exists withThey, the prick, although I have bought the painless, and the glucose meter.By the way, the strips many give me error and I have to use another, with which ...
So being diabetic more diseases are taken ... I have taken my spleen while 2/3 of pancreas, and they told me that without a spleen I will take more diseases ... because if we add the two factors I am going to spend my lifeSick ... more sick I want to say.
Enfin, thanks for your words and your time.
A hug.
