Hi, I just wanted to add my experience with fiasp. I've only been on it for a week and I'm just hoping things continue like this.
I've been on novorapid for decades, with different long-acting insulins tried, recently tresiba.
I've struggled for maybe 15 years with blood sugar going up to maybe 16 after breakfast, coming down by lunchtime. Then up again after lunch and down by suppertime. Then DROPPING every night at 3 am and coming up to normal by breakfast. So my pre-meal glucose looked great but I was out of target a lot of the time.
On fiasp, my glucose is only going up by a couple of units after meals, and coming back down to normal quickly. It's been stable all day and also not dropping at night! My libre 2 analysis says I'm in target for over 90% of the day. It used to be less than 40%.
I feel as if my diabetes is actually controllable again and I'm just hoping desperately that this continues. Sorry @Kel3 I obviously can't promise you'll get the same response if you try it, but I wanted to tell you my experience.
