Gee. I never knee there were quite a few members with T2DM. I've had a patient came in with severe MI but was detected way late. High cardiac tissue death. His cardiac enzymes were elevated. He wasn't aware DM masks the symptoms of myocardial infarction. Chest pain in this case was a very late sign. Too bad he passed away soon after.

QUOTE(stimix @ Mar 19 2013, 05:06 PM) Basic but if works no problem. Instead of rapid insulin, I'm thinking asking the Doc to give me additional Morning insulatard too. Is this OK? Right now on 8 ut of night insulatard and FBS ranging from 4.2 to 6. However 2 hrs after light breakfast, avg BS=9 and 2 hrs after lunch ~ 14 & 2 hrs after Dinner from 13-16. Taking 1700mg Metformin slow release (Morning & nite) + Glicazide 320gm (max dose) Morning & Nite now. Wei... no. Insulatard is slow acting. It's supposed to last through the night. Which means it's still working WHILE you take the other tds doses of Actrapid. It's gonna screw with your blood sugar and you don't want a hypoglycaemic attack. If you're already on Actrapid, you might need to adjust the dosage. How's your HbA1c? |
