[|Human|] I had to reduce the amount of Levemir that I take because I have to wait for the Low Income clinic to send me my prescription and I wont have any insulin until Wednesday afternoon. I need to know what will happen while I wait for my insulin. I used to be able to get it at the pharmacy in town but Humana never told me that they will only allow a certain number of times to refill and now my cost is $161.00 for it. It used to be $47.00. I was told to eat only things that had no or very low carbs, no sweets whatsoever and cut down more than half of my dose of insulin which I used twice a day.
[|AI|]  Well come to ChatDoctorThank for asking I really appreciate your concern, if you are missing the dose of insulin no matter what is the cause for that you are not taking the medicine or insulin dose, then the level of glucose will go increasing in system the plasma glucose level will be too high some time it may cause the ketoacidosis, (Diabetic coma) but it takes few days, and it may not happen at once, or it is not the sudden onset of diabetic emergency, if it is not the type one diabetes then you can try oral hypoglycemic agent, hope this information helps.
