Hi great to find this forum
I was diagnosed as type 2 around 15 years ago
and been taking metformin, pretty much since then, they had tried me on glicazide first and then metformin and then metformin and rosiglicizine ? I think it was, that was ok for a while
but been taking insulin nova-mix 30 for around 4 years plus metformin
I take 3 metformin 850g per day and been taking the insulin morning and evening (started on 12 units) and think I am supposed to be taking something like 20 units twice a day,
But recently finding because my sugars are going high sometimes over 20 rarely under 10 I think I need to be using 30 units,
if I take 30 is that to much ?
Ok I know I should really go and see the diabetic nurse, if we still have one at practice? not sure
Its all getting me a bit down, and quite stressed at work, anyway today feel exhausted
and not gone to work, Dr diagnosed me with anxiety a few years ago and take some tablets for that
then my neighbour told me the other day stress can affect your diabetic control,
I ate a aero chocolate bar BIG ONE yesterday,
Felt good at the time...but not good FOR ME Big chocolate probably why I feel sh*t today
