I don't know if any of you remember but months ago I was having issues with my insulin and worked out that the Basal was running out. I split it and things had been a lot better until the last few weeks.
The basal is an issue and I think its been degrading - see fridge thread. So last night I changed to a nice new cartridge that has been in the fridge less than a week. Bed on 7 get up on 20.
So contact DSN giving her a weeks overnight readings.
Response - don't understand why its erratic, can't give any advice other than check sites and keep testing, can't see me before clinic appt in a couple of months.
OK I can understand that it can be hard to interpret the figures sometime, but I would have felt better if I had been asked to keep testing over the next few days, to keep in touch, provide whatever else she might find useful. I just feel like I have been cut loose and left to my own devices. Feeling all alone and struggling.
Sorry just needed to rant
