Hi,
Would really appreciate advice on this one. I moved from abasaglar to tresiba due to rising BG over night on abasaglar and this has worked quite well and generally tresiba is fine, however, I found I had too much IOB during sports with increasing durations like running > 30mins.
Advice previously given with higher BG overnight was to split dose but I didn’t like the idea of twice daily injections but now I’ve come around to the idea .
I read that Levemir will be discontinued this year from Novo which I understand people use to split dose.
Can anyone help with alternatives or other ideas/experiences?
I do find with sport I’m pretty sensitive, I can even eat a large spag bol with a lot of pasta with no bolus and do 1.5hrs of sport and be fine so I guess my basal at that time day is pretty high. I don’t fancy eating that much to go running every other day though and would rather reduce basal for that part of the day.
There is the option of running with sweetened water but I do eat carbs to run and take no bolus also in general it makes sense to have different basals for am and pm. I’m open to ideas here and others experiences.
Thanks
