Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...
Hi everyone,
It's been a long time since I was here. I am Type 2 diabetic. I am using the Libre 2 reader and sensor. So far so good. It's been a little under a year now. I love the idea of not having to pick my fingers every day. I am also on Tresiba insulin 32 units at bedtime. My sugars are good for the most part, however after supper they climb but get lower overnight and morning is usually 4.6 to 5.5.
I was on rebylsus 3 mg for a month. I got a little nauseated but nothing bad. So my endo prescribed 7 mg and holy moly, I took 1 a day for a week and had the most violent side effects. I need to be back on 3 mg again. They are better for me and the benefits are good. Wow, it was so difficult coping with the 7 mg. Gone now, so good for me.
I just wanted to come here and touch base and ask if anyone has any problems with their meds or anything else.
Take good care and see you again soon.

Triseba is according to my endocrinologist a long term insulin. I take 5 mg at bedtime. I use novalog with meals. It is short term insulin.
The numbers you reported do not align with anything related to freestyle numbers. Those look like A1C numbers that get read every 3 months.
Your freestle 2 I used it and the numbers there go down to 50 and up to 300
The numbers with decimal points are from A1C readings the freestle libre 2 does not give A1C readings. It gives up to hour and minute readings that should be closer to 100 and after eating they go up depending on injected insulin
Just little information to think about
