I am T2 but my HBA1C has always been 70+
I was on all the pills for my BS but nothing got it to be below 10 consistently. Activity and diet wise I had to be walking or my case working but walking about 14 miles a week or about 3 a day along with eating next to nothing for my BS to stay below 10.
After years and years and years of this I have finaly been put on insulin and taken off all but one of the pills (Empagliflozin).
I am now on Toujeo once a day and NovoRapid with meals.
I am still adjusting the dose to suit my needs but so far I am taking 26 Units of Toujeo at night and then 10-16 units of NovoRapid depending on what I eat.
The thing I want to know is how the dose compares to a T1. I have looked about on google but cant seem to find an answer.
I would hope the does I am taking is much lower than what someone who is T1 taking.
I have been on the Toujeo for 6 ish weeks and the NovoRapid for 2/3 weeks. My August HBA1C was 83, last week it was 77. I am hoping after a full 3 months on both inulins my HBA1C will come right down. Fingures crossed.
Cheers
