I’m not obsessed, I’m worried about what is going on. I’ve gone from having high resistance and needing to bolus well in advance with lyumjev up until beginning of September. Then back to humlog because the lyumjev speed was too much as my resistance had lowered. Then up until last week I was still trying to find my new bolus timings using the humalog and battling with an ever changing basal level due to my sensitivity to weather pressure changes, flu and Covid jabs, and stress. Then out of the blue in just over a week my peaks of 16 - 18 mmol suddenly drop to 11 - 13 mmol . Now if I continued to bolus at the times I was now I’m likely to be be almost if not hypoing because every time my insulin kicks in with not enough peak I just plummet within 20 minutes and it never stops until I’ve had some glucose. Something must have caused a sudden change in resistance and the resistance is still becoming lower every day. I plummet too fast for the libre to keep up with and it misses the alarms. I also take 20 plus minutes for food or glucose to kick in. I can’t get anyone to understand what is happening. I keep being spouted by dbn nurses that the manufacturer says take your insulin 15 minutes or more before food. It isn’t working that way for me by a long shot. Not everything is because of my fear of hypos and that seems to be getting in the way of finding out what’s going on with me.
