it is important to make sure that you are injecting the insulin correctly forget maximum benefit of treatment.Some possible reasons why there could be liquid in the puncture area after injecting insulin are:The syringe was not well full: make sure that the syringe is well full before injecting insulin.
The needle was not completely inserted: be sure to insert the needle completely into the skin before injecting the insulin.
The needle was clogged: if the needle is clogged, the entire insulin may not come out.Remove the needle and put it back to make sure you are clear.
The skin was not tense enough: tensing the skin can help the needle between correctly and prevent insulin from escaping.
Insulin was too cold or too hot: insulin should be at room temperature to be easier to inject.Do not use insulin that has been stored in the freezer or that has been exposed to very high temperatures.
If you still have problems with insulin injection, it is important that you talk to your doctor or nurse to get help and make sure you are administering insulin correctly.
Thank you very much for the information.I will make sure everything before injecting
In my case if I sometimes have liquid around.But it is due to purge the needle.If for example, you purge the needle with a couple of units you will see that in the end you have a drop on the tip.Then load the units you need and you will enter without problem.
Yes, he always purged her and with the drop I then put the units.

Without antibodies and you work the pancreas I do not see you as Lada, I think you are a type2, so with the pill they lowered you the debut.The pills do not lower us.They also gave them to me and at the 4th day I changed to basal insulin, and fast if it went from 160, which I did not use in 20 months until my reservation was exhausted, but I do have antibodies.
In any case, go back to the endo and adjust the basal.That test on your own and go up is not ethical.I asked my endo a long time ago and told me that it is calculated by weight and initial theoretical height and that it is usually quite right.

What happens, I remember because we debut at the same time and we have the same case, is that it has the peptide C for the soils with what metformin alone will not do anything.We already commented at the time, and you and I agreed that it is not lada or type1 if it has no antibodies, which is type 2. What they diagnosed me.
But without pancreatic reserve the treatment is the same.Or you put an exogenous insulin, since the body does not secrete it or you go through the clouds.
There is a generalized conviction of what type2 is it with pills but no.It depends on whether the problem is resistance (pills) or lack of pancreatic functioning (insulin).

@isabelbota totally agree but I think you use insulin from the beginning and @smartinez has not used it having acceptable values.It is very rare that it goes directly to insulin, so I think they have told him to try so little, because his pancreas if he generates and with very little can have induced hypoglycemia.Hence my question that does not prescribe metformin.

Already, but she decided to follow a low diet in hydrates and thus has remained with the little reserve that she had left.No, I decided to eat everything (except hydrates than before, of course, but varied).But without reservation there is no other insulin.He also thinks that his endo is determined that he is Lada/Type 1 and the treatment in those cases is insulin.
But that is the right thing, with very low C peptide there is no other.Another thing is that it is added (as in my case) metformin to increase sensitivity and reduce liver glucose.But the metformin alone is not going to do anything, although it helps in combination with insulin to need less, I have checked in my flesh ...

What mess I have 😅, the truth is that my diabetes is a bit rare.Everything you say has logic.I hope that with more doses of insulin I lower me but it is true that metformin in its day worked super good, in fact they gave me hypos of 54, 55, just by walking a little.I don't know exactly if insulin makes you the same effect as metformin.The C peptide in August was 0.80 and it is assumed that a lada is wasting over time.The case is that I get up with much higher levels than before and worry, I need to lower them, they have told me that it is worrying in the long run.

I passed the Covid (Super Mild) in September 2020. By May 2021 I believe that I started with thirst and urinating, but it was progressive, it was not sudden so I did not perceive it as something worrying.In summer I already started to mosque and lose weight and it was in September when I had to enter the hospital with ketoacidosis.I did have antibodies and they diagnosed me like Lada.Insulin from minute1.
I have the theory that Covid triggered an immune response that has led me to diabetes, but it took a year to collapse.However, it seems that in your case, the COVID has loaded the pancreas, immediately and not your antibodies.
The endocrine in my case did not relate it, he said that it was a debut not very frequent, but within normal.
Subsequently, they have observed a significant increase in debuts, especially in children, similar to yours, immediately after Covid infection, even in full infection.I mean, that the Covid, in a matter of days destroyed the islets of the pancreas.

Well, @Smartinez is not much trick, if you get up over 140mg/dl for 3 days, you have to upload a unit in Toujeo and with that increase see for 3 days if you stabilize.And so every 3 days until you find the dose.Go up or down every 3 days, but you can't see the Toujeo effect.

Well, it is rare, because metformin does not cause hypos.Do not lower glucose, prevent it from climbing everything that would rise with food.
