Hello Mihaela,

Are you getting advice from your DAFNE coordinator to change your BI, or have you changed it yourself? Either way, I think that the reasoning for changing it is good, but a little weird that the results seem to be getting worse since changing it.

With the continual rise between eating dinner and going to bed, it does look like a case of your BI running out, and it is obvious that you have made two changes there - the first to take your evening BI at dinner time instead of bed time, and secondly to increase your morning BI. Both are excellent things to try.

Unfortunately, and unusually, this has resulted in higher BGs across the board, which is very unexpected. Is there any chance that you are coming down sick at the moment, as that would explain the rise in BGs. If so, then follow the sick day rules in your DAFNE handbook (There is a link to it at the top right of this page)

BI changes need to stay constant for three days to allow the body to adjust to the new doses, so stick with it, and hopefully we'll see some good progress soon. Please keep posting your diary to this forum thread, and I'll keep an eye out to see if there is anything else I can suggest.

If you are getting sick, then hopefully you will start getting better soon.

Best regards,
Warwick.

yes im not getting sick at all and im a bit dissapointed with my bg lately i dont know anymore

maybe ill do my night bi at 8pm every afternoon and increase my morning bi to 10?

I think leave your evening BI so that you take it at dinner time, but if you are seeing similar results to Saturday and Sunday, then increasing your morning BI by an additional 2 units would seem warranted.

Have you changed your BI pen recently? Just wondering if your BI has gone bad recently. If you are in Victoria like I am, then the recent heat could certainly do that.

Cheers,
Warwick.

ok i started my night bi at 8pm now and im having 2 units qa in the morning so ill see how i go
