Sir

I understand that a new breed of medicines which has very good effect had been evolved recently.

Why don't you ask your doctor about 'Toujeo'...

Please check...

Is she type 1 or type 2?

Is she taking her meals as usual?

42,54??? Such low levels can be deadly. Hypoglycemia is much more dangerous than hyperglycemia.

Consult with doctor and try to reduce the insulin doses.

Skip the insulin dose whenever she skips the meal.

Take a close look at which food is affecting her bsl and do some diet changes also.

If you're not getting the expected results why don't you change the treatment. Find an expert endocrinologist.
