| First, thanks for the reply. I take Lantus at around 6PM (now 20 units). Treating the extreme hunger in the dawn has been a problem, and I would eat an Atkins Bar or 2 tbs of peanut butter. Last night, I tried the NPH trick, and at 5:00 AM, the BS was 109, but at 9AM, it was 204. No clue what happened, except that I felt very nauseus at 5 AM.
I need to start all over. Should I begin with 10 U Lantus at night and try to establish the dose better? My doctor said to start at 20U, and I did a fasting test, and my BS in the morning were
135 150 113 (starting at 6, then 8, then 10:30). This was fasting. Also, with the 20, I injected 5 units H at 6 with breakfast which consisted of 2 eggs, no carbs. BS Still went up to 150.
Other than NPH, how could I handle the NPH. My BS are great in the afternoon with 10 Units of Lantus. It's just the morning.
Would you inject Lantus in the morning, bedtime or dinner? |
