Diabetologist 's  Response
Hello Steven.
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I can help you.
You need to understand that diabetes is not a static condition.
It is an ongoing condition.
The insulin need would rise gradually.
Sooner or later, the dose of medicine being taken has to be modified.
This occurs because the capacity of the pancreas to secrete its own insulin changes.
As that happens, the lower insulin produced by the body needs to be supplemented by higher doses of insulin given externally.
So you may need higher doses, and you can meet your diabetician for modified doses of insulin.
Alternatively, you can tell us the exact readings of sugars and we may be able to suggest part of the modification.
Best of luck,
Feel free to ask another question.
