Hi everyone...May I first wish you all a very Happy and Healthy New Year!!
It is my third day on my start of 10 Units of Levimer today. So far, I am doing ok and not having any problems with injecting, still feels a little strange emotionally though
I had to report in to my DSN this morning to let her know my fasting readings, they have been 8.4 and 9, so in single figures. She said to carry on with the 10 units for now, if the fasting levels go into double figures then up it to 12...she said it's a slowly does it process! I have to ring her back on Monday and see how we go....Anyway, she asked me if I was feeling ok, I said fine, only I had noticed that in the morning, before breakfast, that I felt really hungry, I mean like feeling sick with hunger 😱 She said that this was the Insulin, she did explain something about energy and the body changing and so the body thinks that it needs food...I am probably getting this all wrong, I can't really remember how she explained it
Does anyone here know what she might of meant?....Does Insulin make you really that hungry?...I am ok once I have eaten my normal breakfast, I just feel a little hungry late evening as well....I am wondering if this is why Insulin can make people gain weight?
Thank you in advance 🙂 Ellowyne xXx
