I see the confusion
If I understand you, you think Levemir is used for carbohydrates. Levemir is a basle insulin, meaning it works for 24 hours. Like a background insulin. the amount of Levemir taken has nothing to do with the amount of carbohydrates (carbs) you eat. That type of insulin is called a bolis insulin, like Apedra, Novalog... that insulin is taken according to how many carbs are eating and YOUR particular carb to insulin ratio.
The Levemir is NOT on a sliding scale. It is a given does once a day Or twice a day. 12 hours apart.
is his 224 after eating or first thing in the morning before food or drink?
When you eat, you need the fast acting insulin like Novolog to act quickly to cover the meal. For some, Lantus and Levemir act the same. For me, Levemir seemed to work better in that it provided more consistency to my blood sugar levels. I like Levemir. I have switched to 2 shots per day (morning and night) instead of just taking the 1 shot at night, because the 1 shot at night may not cover the 24 hours.
I have recently changed to new insulin. I am now taking Levemir in the morning and at night taking Apidra. Since I have changed to this insulin my blood sugar is going upby alot. I was at 176 this morning and within a few hours it was at 296. This has never happened before and I have not changed anything in my eating. Why is it going up so much and how can I make this stop?
It was working well for a year. Then blood was becoming high, Doctor gave me LEVEMIR. If I take 10 units of humalog, after two hours sugar drops 4 points, I think this is the right dose for humalog for what I eat. I eat 60 gram Carb every meal. But 3 hours, sugar tries to go low, but insead, it bounces back and proceede to values and I start to feel hypo, though I never see sugar 9. It is not hypo value, why sugar bounces up, why feel shaky, fear etc. I use LEVIMIR as base insulin.
I am an insulin dependant diabetic. I was out of Levemir for several days and I tried to control with Novolog. Wednesday and Thursday I was running over 600. Yesterday I got my Levemir and started taking it right away. It took most of the day to get down to 350. I was feeling real sick all day. Sleepy, dizzy, nauseous. muscle weakness. I slept from 6:00 pm until 10:00 am. My numbers were up to 500 again. I got them back to 300 by 3:00 pm, but have continued to feel just as sick.
I have type 2 diabetes (2 yrs). My A1C is 7.6 I am presently using Levemir Flex Pen (22) before bed. I take synthroid for hypothyrodism (10 yrs) and recently started taking crestor for high cholesterol (which is now within normal range) I 58, female and over-weight. Question: I want to start taking 200 mcg of chromium picolinate to help with my diabetes. Is this safe to take with the medications I am currently taking? Also, when is the best time to take it.
t giving him any the lantus people wants me on toujeo cause their patent was coming up so they stopped sampling it!!!! He offered me a levemir sample he said it had less weight gain than lantus and was the same., plus the levemir company still samples, I have been on this stuff for three weeks, I don't feel sluggish after taking it, I feel great, and the pen is nice!
It was working so well for me previously. I went to a new endo about a year ago, and he suggested I try Levemir instead of the Lantus. Once I started the Levemir, I noticed a marked improvement with more consistent bg levels. I am a Type 1 diagnosed at 33, and I am 10 years into the disease. I take sliding Humalog and 12 U Levemir at bed. I hope this helps.
I believe we addressed the problem earlier about the fact that cancer was found in the biopsy slides and not in the exam post-op. Slides are made from each specimen submitted and labeled as they are made. I'm sure the slides are still available if you would like to have them read by another independant Lab. Regards ....
I'm sure I could ask my doctor this but are you allowed to go down water slides while pregnant?
16 aspirate smear slides show varying degrees of cellularity, with many slides consisting predominantly of blood. A few slides have fragments of tissue and smears of tissue. Some fragments are thick and very difficult to evaluate. In the better spread areas, the cells show a population of round cells consistent with lymphocytes. There appear to be follicular cells intermixed in some areas, and the findings suggest Hashimotos thyroiditis.
Hi!! I went to the doctor couple days ago, they took some analysis from penis with a kind of stick, after that touched ( not just one toch,but touched very strong) microscope glass slides, and after that with the same object again took analysis from penis and put on onother glass slide.( slides looked cleaned) I don't know if microscope glass slides was disinfected / sterilizated.
I even tried Levemir, but after two days the pains came back. I stopped all shots and the pain and other symptoms went away. Is there an insulin that doest not cause stomach pain, chills, and vomiting?
Im really not sure but when my sister was like 6 months pregnant she wasnt allowed on anything. I think most say that youre not allowed to ride pregnant on the sign before you enter.
I was wondering if it is ok to go to a water park and get on the water slides. Oh yeah im 9 weeks today!
no reason your can't do the slides- at 5 weeks it is very well protected. I wouldn't play tackle football, but i think a water slide will be fine. they don't say not to ride a motorcycle...
