We are lol - I suppose the question is can I now manage without any Levemir at all ?? Maybe my pancreas has been on holiday for the last 4 years and she''s back 🙄

I do find it odd how requirements change so you dont need as much insulin and then before you know it - it has all gone pear shaped again and you are right back to double units again 😱

My novorapid has halved over the past week, plus no lantus now for 25 days! Perhaps there's a special Four Year Spontaneous Pancreas Regeneration - I'm 4 years since diagnosis too! 🙂

I think you are right - it's time to throw and no inulin party :D

Will be interesting when I see my consultant on the 6th July (I should have seen him in May - but was stuck in hospital)

My consultant wasn't interested, although it wasn't the one I normally see.

Yeah I remembered you saying - hopefully mine will be my normal one - when I check in and then see the nurse I have to tell her DR I only and I go onto his pile otherwise it could be just anyone of of his numerous other dr's who work with him.

I'm going to ask next time and if my usual consultant isn't available I'm going to change the appointment!
 
14.0 for me today, despite having 28u last night :( I did a test at approx 1am and I had gone up to 17.8 again :(

I don't know, somedays I feel positive about it all, then others, it goes pear shaped!
I had curry last night, so maybe this wasn't a good move.

Do you know what your level was like before bed? Don't lose hope! Can I ask if you manage to do much exercise each day? This can be a tremendous help as it really helps make your body more sensitive to the insulin, making it work much better 🙂
