Change to Toujeo

@Afterego, you have been in diabetes 1 for many years, and maybe you have everything well known.But I also tell you a reflection that arises to read what you tell: it is possible that the toujeo goes worse than the lantus, yes.But, it is also possible that it is other factors that make you these variations.For example, stress (conscious or not): if one makes a change and has expectations that it works in one way or another, that generates stress (negative, by clarifying us: stress that does not imply action through which to release it, butwaiting stress).And stress usually causes the glycemic climb.In short, that in addition to dealing with rations and glucose and insulin measures, we face many factors that we cannot control;Only the fact of realizing that we cannot control everything and accept it, it is already a step to release tension (of which it is often not aware)
Well, and if it doesn't work for you, why change the Lantus?;-)

hello everyone.

Well as I said before I have already begun with this slow insulin in exchange for the previous
I had been using several years.
Previously I came with Lantus dose twice a day 09.00 14 units and 20 at 9 pm.
Two days ago I started with the toujeo and I notice that in the afternoon I have values ​​over 200 and without eating.
According to endo, he says he takes a few days to accommodate.
I apply 30 units at night at 9 pm but I have to apply additional humalog so that it does not rise too much.
Any experience or comments would be helpful.
Thanks

I'm waiting a little more, every 3 days I'm going to get 2 or more, let's see where I finish, but I'm going to give the margin toujeo until the end of July.

Good to all

I tell you that after 24 I must have returned to Lantus my values ​​returned to normal and did not pass at all 200.
It is seen that I was not for me.
Thanks for the tips.

If something goes well, you don't have to change it.

If you have a 6.1 hemoglobin, nothing is necessary to change, for the only thing to get rid of a puncture.
Maybe the Tresiba went well, but now you will not be for more changes.
