I been taking insulin for 23 yrs and in that time i have gotten about 6 bottles that did not work. THis past time was worse said my bs where 250 up to 306 in the morning when i am use to 130's i tried this for several days thinking it was me and then i realize it was the insulin...
By then the sugars are out of control and when i got me a new bottle of insulin took three more days to control it again and now i am just fine with bs from 115-130's every morning and before my meals.
Anyone else ever get bad insulin?

Hey, I had this happen to me very recently! Like, last week! My bg started going up, up, up...went to the doc and we changed my basal rate.

Then, yes, it took a few days to come down. We thought it was from weight gain, maybe pregnant, stress, but no, it was bad insulin. :0

Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
