Diabetes, Type 2
"I&#039;ve only been on Levemir, 12 units for about a week and I feel like I&#039;m going to die. I take it at 9 everynight, yet my blood sugar first thing in the morning was still 154. We try and keep it under 140. Before it was usually under 200. My last A1C was 7.2  I&#039;m so tired, very weak, can only walk for 10 yards without stopping to rest.  My heart pounds too. I called my endo doc and he now wants to supplement it with Novolog, to control meal spikes. Now I&#039;m afraid to take it because it may make me feel even worse. I&#039;ve been so careful with what I eat and have lost 7 pounds, but I feel like garbage. Any ideas, anyone?? Have I just not been on Levemir long enough for my body to adapt?"
