That sounds like what happened to my friend. I think it might be time to be pushing for an appointment with ENT. Or at least presenting at A&E.I'm more concerned about the other ear with the hearing loss as they've said there is no wax and no infection so can't say why i can't hear. I shall be pushing for something to be done if it doesn't clear by Tuesday.
@Elenka_HM it might be the weather, a lot of people find they need less insulin in warmer weather. Plus the insulin treatment could have given your pancreas a new lease of life, so you are producing some more insulin of your own. Might be worth asking the DSN though.I did an experiment of skipping my insulin for 2 days and I don't see a big difference. Sure it's been a bit warmer and I've been walking, but no more than I normally walk in a day with insulin. I did have bigger "mountains" in my graph after meals yesterday but still stayed in range. I'm a bit confused. Looks like I'm taking medication for nothing, but I'm worried if I stop for longer my levels can go up suddenly and get in trouble. I did take my basal this morning, with a unit reduction, and will ask some questions in my hospital review next week.
