... levels were spiking into the 400 range. I started on Lantus Solostar insulin and I have been increasing the dose by 6 units every 3 days and still I can't see it dropping. Today I started 61 units. I was on 55 units for 3 days and my sugar level was still in the 200's as it has been with severe thirst and increased urine. I like to know what your experience is and if you have any advice. I inject it on my abdomen in one spot slowly
