I’m glad it was helpful @Pandy8 I’m pleased he’s speaking to his team soon. If he wants to ask about the insulin regime I referred to above (MDI/basal-bolus), here’s information from the NICE guidelines for Type 1 diagnosed in adults. Two insulins gives more flexibility although the idea of extra injections might not appeal, the pay-off - flexibility and better control - is worth it:
1.7.2 Do not offer adults newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes non‑basal–bolus insulin regimens (that is, twice‑daily mixed, basal only or bolus only). [2015]
1.7 Insulin therapy
Insulin regimens
1.7.1 Offer multiple daily injection basal–bolus insulin regimens as the insulin injection regimen of choice for all adults with type 1 diabetes. Provide guidance on using this regimen. [2015]1.7.2 Do not offer adults newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes non‑basal–bolus insulin regimens (that is, twice‑daily mixed, basal only or bolus only). [2015]
