I’m sure many here know I’ve been having issues with high insulin resistance after getting Covid. I don’t know if recent events are because the PTB changed me from Novolog to Humalog. I’m on my first cartridge.
This morning I woke with BG around 135mg/dl. It continued to rise with me doing corrections. I ate 20-30 carbs and did an extended bolus for 90 g total split 50/50.
Continue to rise. When I got home from church I did a 5u IM in the deltoid muscles. It finally started coming down with all that other insulin on board.
Mea culpa, mea culpa mea maxima culpa - I stand corrected. I do stand by the IM injections to bring high BG down quickly.
I was on day 3 of my cartridge in set yesterday. When I went to change it out I was having trouble finding the set. I use my thighs, top and outer sides. Well the darn thang was under my underwear and was not attached. I guess the underwear soaked up all those corrections.
My only excuse is because the history of BG spiking and slow to respond caused me not to check the infusion site.
