[Diabetes-talk] insulin question?

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

Um, does anyone here contact an endocrinologist, or doctor of some kind,
when issues like this come up? Whenever I feel I've made a mistake, or
have questions, the first place I turn to is my endo and nurse educator,
and in fact, I send blood sugars every two to three weeks, though it's
weekly now that I'm pregnant. It just seems like if a major issue is
concerning one, such as overdosing on insulin or having spikes in
glucose levels, or lows, the first place to go to would be an
endocrinologist.

Sincerely,
Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter

Call me and we'll talk!  Without breaking any confidences here, the
person 
helping you should be able to help you offlist or VIA phone.  It depends
on what 
your normal dose required versus how much you actually injected.  Being
that 
Lantus is a slow-acting insulin, you do have some minutes here.  If you
were 
talking about something like Humolog R or Novolog R, or even a 70/30
mix,  I'd 
either call 911 or get hold of someone with a glucogun real fast! In the

meantime, grab food and drink and shovel it in!!  410-455-5311.
