@imara, I have been using a year, and it is great.
Right now I can't take a picture of my pen ... but look

-1
-
-2

This is what comes out in the Boligraph ... that is, if you select between 1 and 2, you are putting 1.5 units.
@gala's, it's great by the way

What do you think about what I put from the integral cookies?:(

@"Rake", we have crossed the messages ... I have put it before the integral cookies.

The pen marks, it is clear that you can select 1.5, but what is not clear is that you can select only 0.5, I referred to that.

Of course you can select only 0.5, to that I referred to me before.

It's true, we have crossed the messages

I have ever put 0.5 units.If you look, to go from 0 to 1, you have to do 2 clips.;That is to say that if you only make a clip with the pen wheel it is medium unit.

@"Gala", I have looked at it, yes, I see that it marks the half units, so I say it is a pass, in addition to what you comment on saving reminders :-)
With not putting socks I referred to mine, which is the one that has @"rake": yes, two clicks, and the first supposes average, true;I have not done it, to put only medium, for what I have said above.We will try then when it is necessary.
And I will ask for the novo Nordisk, to see if it can be.

You will tell us how it works for you.I hope it is a great mechanism that lasts a long time :-)

(Tomorrow I have stayed with the coordinator of my health center to talk about the material: they do not give us containers for needles but they demand that we take them in boats; incidentally I will ask him about the rest of the material: how to suggest that they give more strips or see whatfeathers have to facilitate patients, etc.

Hi Rake, welcome to files X. I have been diabetic type I 50 years ago (from 7) and I can tell you that the long evolutions of the disease lead to this type of episodes, in addition, with little medical argument.I personally, I am making continuous corrections.Keep in mind that, if you start eating with a level of "200", in the end you will always have that added over-added, for what you should, or previously correct (1-2-3 you quickly), or add them toThe dose of the moment.When I explain these abnormal episodes to my doctor is he who takes note.(ha ha ha).Keep in mind that, "in so long of evolution", there is not too much base to be able to apply a more logical solution (yet).Greetings.

@"rake", for the cookies, which is integral usually digests slower and raise the blood glucose in a slower and more sustained way.Look at this thread if you want.And you would also see if the cookies you have eaten have sugar or not, and if they have the same hydrates as the Mary that you usually eat, because they can have more and that has uploaded the blood glucose ...

What bread is better to eat with diabetes?
A few years ago, the doctor told me that he had a little high sugar on an empty stomach, about 145 or 150, but I didn't pay attention.

Recently, in an analysis, my sugar level came out to 230.

Everything that has been saved (fiber) is more recommended for the positive effects that it entails.

hello sweets!

I am Raquel and I would like you to give me your opinion, despite being 33 years old and 25 of diabetics, I continue with files x !!!!
I am using the freestyle sensor, so I look at sugar levels much more (sometimes I get obsessed) .. The fact is that with the 10 units of three that I wear, I keep "well" during the day.But I have days noticing that after 6 pm in the afternoon, it starts to climb without any explanation.

I give you an example:

At 14:00 before food he had 83, at 15:30 he had 160 ...... at 5:00 p.m., 145 ... we are going quite well.And from 17:30, without taking anything it has risen me to 180 ..... at 20:00 I was already 200, and it is what I have reached dinner.

Tresiba, I don't think I should get up because if I don't arrive just at breakfast ... and my endo told me to keep it to avoid a descent ... my question is, what would you do, put a unit of fastTo correct?Despite not taking any snack?

I ask why this little accustomed to correcting, and I have only done it when I have had more than 250 ..

Thanks in advance.

I have used three months for 3 months, and it is worse than the Lantus.I started with 28 units and I go for 40 units a day and the truth is that glucose levels are not lowered or hypoglycemia are produced.It is as if they click water.

The novorapid is more effective and I must use 10 units to make a correction when I get the postpandriral to 200 after two hours of eating.

Do not scandalize since my diabetes is one of the worst since insulin has no effect on my body how well it should.

Do you do snack?If you do not do it, because perhaps what you lack is fast insulin, and making a snack you can correct those climbs avoiding a hypo, it would also be good to do some sport in the afternoon, along with the snack, the sport helps to keepRay those hyper, and with the snack and that insulin pinch you correct it very well, or at least I do so

Thanks to everyone for answering!
@Jvh, the integral cookies etc ... I asked why I had another file x, and it is that I reached breakfast well (I do not remember the figure) and at the time I passed the freestyle and had 250, we go a peak of the milk;That is why he thought that integral cookies ... they submit more glucose

@Narciso, one of the advantages of Tresiba, is that it must cause you less hypoglycemia (or that is the goal).It is much better than the lantus, since it has a duration of about 36 hours, I keep the glucose more.But everything is a matter of trying and if you are doing worse, tell your endo to change it again.

@Lidia Martin Nadales, the month of January I had very busy and I have not gone to the Gym.Tomorrow I'm coming back ...

@Rake, the daughter happened to me with the three -year, I climbed in the afternoon without snacking anything and went down a lot at night if it increased dose.

He put it in the morning, perhaps he would have improved if he had put it at night ..

But in the end he went to Toujeo and controls it much better.Although he had to change the food a little and lower the hydrates, because the flours and the fats rise later and these flat slopes do not help with slow digestions.

The body does not need the same basal insulin throughout the day.That is the problem.

I wear the slow before bedtime and the only way that does not give me problems is to dinner little without causing a hypo and having done sports or some exercise in the afternoon.

In this way the sport continues to lower my glucose at night and compensate my peak.

Another way I have used is to get a bit quickly before bedtime, but it is playing with fire.

Hi Rake, it happens to me, I put the three -year in the morning, and Humalog June use for meals, and about 2 hours later it goes up to 140, it reaches 200 and even 250, I am correcting with the fast, butSometimes the fast does not take effect, I have noticed that if as a small quantity or food with little fat, fried without me, I do not upload the glucose, I finish eating in 90 and rises to 100 maximum and so I maintain it until theDinner time, about 9pm, I hope my experience serves you, many luck

@nuriapal14 Fats rise glycemia at 3, 4 hours.It is necessary to add insulin in these cases, the insulin of the food does not cover it because it lasts a 2 hours.

When you say that insulin does not take effect, it is what they call insulin resistance, it is usually a hormonal issue, especially in women.The only option is to put more insulin and increase sport.

The basal can be put in two shots, it is not recommended for Toujeo or Tresiba, but there are people who do better.

Each diabetic is different.

The same thing happens to me, I have been very well at night when I usually upload me at 3 in the morning.I have managed to be flat putting it at night around 9 and I have played sports around 7. I wear little fast (no more than 2 u) for dinner and a light dinner with few hydrates.It is the only way.I still give the three of two, in the morning 5 U and at night 8.

Hello, diabetic here since I was 5 years old, already reaching the 60s "of evolution".Courage, your life will be complicated, but long.

As for your issue, I have no experience with the Tresiba, but it is the same for all retarded insulins.It is a control problem.By definition, have the profile they have, they act 12-24 hours late.That means you cannot use the dose to correct control.Spot.

In my case, the problem were not hyperglycemia, but something worse, hypoglycemia.My opinion is that it has no remedy with pen.The problem is solved by a continuous infusion pump with rapid insulin.With it (and your endocrinologist/o) programs a variable basal profile throughout the day to stay in range.My experience is that the glycosilada kept me (I was and followed in 6 and peak), but suppressed the hypos.That is, an average control much better.

Continuous sensors such as free help and facilitate life, but not much control does not improve.Now I carry a closed loop system (780g with G4 sensors of Medtronic).Of course, the glycar lows at the normal level (5 and peak) and ninety percent of the time in range.

The pump is a broken kinx that you carry 24/7 attached to the body with a pipe, but well, it is what there is.

Luck.And if you want to ask something, do not cut yourself.

Thanks for the comments

Before using a bomb that is if there is no choice to improve, although my endocrine has never suggested it to me even, they just tell me to quickly lower the glycemia from 3h after eating.

I wear the three in the morning, I do the exercise in the morning, to dinner I only put 1.5u and at night I am stable, if I do it in the afternoon I get early in the early morning.

Should I then get fast so that it does not rise to 200 and another option would be to try to divide the threeiba in 2 times?But how?I get 9u de tresiba
