Type 2 with insulin and new in the forum

Hello, I'm new to the forum,

20 years ago I am type 2 diabetics, with pills, but now and after a breast cancer I have gone to insulin, the fact is that I put 12 units at night and awake with a glucose of more than 300.

My question is whether so at first or something does not do well because with the pills dawn with 249, that's why they had insulin.

Greetings,

It is very high to be fasting.Talk to your specialist, you will have to adjust the dose.

I have no idea how this topic is handled, the diabetology indicated like this to start but it is seen that it does not work, I am Argentina, my name is Sandra, what happens is that the user is not changed,

Both 249 and Basal 300 is a burial, something fails, insulin is not in conditions, you have insulin resistance, you would have to get much more basal insulin, complete insulin with some other pharmac?What glucosilada do you have? Do not leave it with those values ​​is to go to the endocrine already, even if it is via urgencies.

Hello, Sandra.They will have prescribed an approximate insulin dose, but you have to adjust it until you wake up around 100, although not every day they are the same.
Type 1 is increasing the dose of insulin one in one unit, letting two days pass to see the effect.
I believe that you also need to increase the dose.
Talk to your doctor, because you are in very high values.

Hello Regina, thanks, tomorrow I have to see the diabetology and I will surely increase the dose, read that some have two or three per day and I only one at 8 pm.It will be tested and error, but it makes 12 units per day only injected, I hope you will increase and do not have to be injected more times per day.

Hello, tomorrow I have a turn with my endocrinologist, I will surely increase the dose, I do not know how the issue of insulin is, if it is little by little, if it is tested and error or that, I am not for experiments.

It is very high.Surely they will increase the dose or complement with oral medications.Do not leave it, go to the endocrine as soon as you can, it is not healthy to have those levels.

You tell us please

The dose increased me !!I am in 190 not ideal but for there we go !!

The normal thing is to upload 2 units and measure you every morning for 3 days, if on the third day you are still uploaded another 2 units, another 3 days.And so on until you get up below 130mg/dl.
The same vice versa if you get up with hypoglycemia.It is reduced from 2 in 2 every 3 days

Thank you !And as for meals?

The meals depends on the rations of hydrates you eat.
1 ration are 10 grams of hydrates.
What are you usually?How much fast insulin do you put on?What blood glucose are you at 2 hours after eating?
The normal thing is that at 2 hours you are below 180mg/dl and between meals between 80 and 130 mg/dl (it depends on the endo can change the thresholds).

I think you should do some control at dawn to see that you do not have hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in the morning is a rebound, if you would not go short of insulin.You should consult your endocrine.

Greetings.

HELLO !!!From Argentina I could console the values, but ..... there is a piche and a red rchast was made in the mince and it hurt a lot, I wonder, I validated the insulin that I put on or was lost?Why does this happen? Thank you from Argentina, I listen to you !!!

@Felipe2021

Hi Sandra, that happens to everyone from time to time.When making the chopped as you say, you have taken a capillary and a bruise (red ranch) is made.The best thing is to tighten for a minute or two strongly with a clean napkin.That will help reduce the Moraton.Insulin has entered, don't worry.Of course, for a week avoid clicking on that site.
all the best

GREETING

Thank you for your information, as you do to click on different sides, do you follow any pattern?

I am rotating the area in the direction of the needles of a clock
If, for example, I use the left area of ​​the culete for the slow one when I have taken a whole, take days, change myself to the other side.And so on.But the truth is times that I wonder, where did I go?Sometimes I forget.

Each follows its system

The important thing is to rotate the areas and not always put insulin in the same place

I have no doubt that side touches me, the days even signs me on the right side and the odd ones on the left
