Ugh, no one else? Left a message with my CDE hopefully she wll get back to me and we can figure this out. In the meantime do any of you think my Lantus dose may need changing. Here is a perfect example of what happened today: I woke up sugar was 153, so I took my 8 Lantus and 2 N and had about 20-23 grams of carbs (1 and a 1/2 Waffles) 2.5 hours later my sugar is 193, not that bad considering I was 153 before I ate, so I expect it will come down a bit more as the Novolog finishes working. So 1.5 hours later my sugar is 130 ok good, but, why did it take 4.5 hours to come down? Then I took 3 N for lunch and had 45 grams carbs, Pastrami on Rye and 15 grams Popcorn, 2.5 hours later I'm 54, no warnings, didn't even feel it, why did I go so low, is it too much Lantus? Same reason why these things happen at night? How much would you suggest I lower, 7 and 7, or 6 and 6 or even lower. All I want is for my Boluses to work and then my sugars to be stable until my next meal and bolus. I can handle counting carbs, not overeating injecting and everything. Any advice? It seems Lantus should be easier if I had it right, but Lente and Regular just worked so much better.
