Hi all I’m type 2 for 30+ years but diabetes is very unsteady and unstable feeling very low and loafed up with it all
 
Hi @Libbyapril - sorry to hear that.

Could you give us some more information though like if you are one any medication if so, what and explain what you actually mean by unsteady and unstable - compared to what are they unsteady etc? Do you test your blood glucose at home and if so what are the actual unexpected results and when do they happen?
 
Hi Jenny I’m on apidra 3 times a day 56 units and toujeou 60 units blood sugars still between 16-22 I’m trying so hard to get them down but not happening my Gp said if DNS recommended the libra 2 system she would prescribe it but she will only support type 1 which was a real blow for me I’m testing 8-10 times daily
 
Sorry to hear how difficult you are finding it to manage your diabetes @Libbyapril

Have your GP or nurse helped you to adjust your doses based on the carbohydrate content of the meals (or adjust the carbohydrate content of the meals to match your doses)?

Running levels that high must be making you feel pretty grim :(
