Do you notice, or can you describe how you physically feel better?

| | | i feel better after changing my lantus to levemir... i feel like my mood has been lifted, it's difficult to tell at the moment for sure tho because im under a lot of stress at work so i can still be snappy at work... but somehow it doesn't feel the same as before when i was taking lantus.
Im also finding control more predictable on levemir too...
I'd like to try and get it under 6 if i can, but im very happy with 6.5 after a 7.8! to think that i've only really nailed down on my control at the beginning of feb as well, it's pretty good!
today's been a good day so im in a good mood anyway. good hba1c, the dentist hygenist was happy with my teeth today and my friend and i cleared out my back garden of all the old timber.
today is a good day to be me!

| | Stu, that's excellent news. I'm glad to hear your A1C's better & am glad that the levemir is working better for you. I've heard fellow members complain of Lantus affecting them as you have. Here's hoping things continue to go well for you!
