HI all 🙂
Good news is my MRI scan revealed no issues in my brain as such. My headaches seem to be linked to when i inject my novorapid; I have no issues when i inject my night time dose of levemir. Has anybody before experienced headaches from novorapid ( unrelated to my blood sugar highs or lows), and should i consider switching to humalog? Many thanks
 
It's worth trying humalog if only to rule it out. There's always a possibility that one of the ingredients (preservatives, etc?) may cause a reaction.

I've never usd novorapid but I think they have similar profiles so shouldn't cause any operational problems.

Hope it stops the headaches.🙂

I'm using novorapid and have done for the last 10 years and can say I don't get any headaches, certainly worth changing insulin to see if it helps.
 
Nor me Toby and ditto, but it's worth a try!
