OK, so I have now been on Insulin for a week and it is actually beginning to have a little effect on my blood sugars at last.
Having started on 8 units at bedtime on Monday, I am now up to 14 units and my waking blood sugar is almost at optimal levels ( 5 - 7 mmols). My lovely Nurse Helen, is happy for me to titrate the dose up by 2 units every couple of days and hopefully I will have a decent level of control by the time my battle with Boris starts in earnest on Thursday.
Tonight I will try 16 units, and then send Helen my weekend email blood sugar readings tomorrow morning before Ron and I go off to St Mary's for our Chemo Information day.
Stand by for the Battle proper!
