Severe insulin resistance - past 48 hours

I am going to try 30 degree cannulas as the next option and then steel after that if I need to.

I was absolutely gutted with his comment, he made me feel even lower than I already felt. I wish I was the kind of person who could have turned to him and said, actually I’ve tried everything else, my diabetes team don’t work weekends as they deserve a break, I was directed here by other doctors and if I don’t get it sorted then I’d likely end up with a medical emergency and also be poisoning my body. If only he knew.
Don’t know if this helps but we were told to put the cannulas in the fridge first. My daughter was having a few kinked ones and it hasn’t happened since.
