Dose of insulin getting up. April 13, 2018

Fasting sugar is 62 mg/dl.
Yesterday it was 670 units of insulin. No mistake. Just too high blood sugar level. Today fasting is 62 mg/dl. Dose of insulin getting up and up. I do not see high blood sugar rising. Nether do I have very low blood sugar dropping. Usually it is 52 mg/dl. fasting in the morning. But I almost do not take reading at other time of day. Really I have to take one hour blood sugar readings. I did not take it long time for now.
    I expected dropping in insulin dose. In contrary dose of insulin getting up. Now I need to take from 400 units up to 600 units. In other words, it is 3 pens for 2 days. I take all dose in two shots, 305 units in the morning and 305 or 160 units in the eve or bed time. I try to avoid low blood sugar. But it is looks like then more I avoid low blood sugar then lower it dropping. In contrary, then more insulin I inject then more even and flat blood sugar readings.
     Really it is big surprise for me. Still, regardless of any unexpected readings, I still keep blood sugar out of high level. It is good. The friend of mine, he was diabetic type 1, used to take insulin, started to lose weight with drink, TaiSlim, and he lost 136 pounds. I asked him, how was his sugar.
     "It is good." - he answered.- "in the morning it is 42 mg/dl."
      "WOW!" - I was really surprised  how he reacted to so low sugar. -"It is low."
      "No. I start to eat, and sugar getting up."
At that time 42 mg/dl was very low for me. I got dysfunctional. Sometimes even 100 mg/dl was too low, I could not walk. Now time passed and the same as my friend, I have 42 or 52 in the morning, then I eat, and sugar getting up. Last time I met him he was out of insulin. His daughter  also got out of insulin, very beautiful now.

     There are many posts on-line and links, how people lost weight with different diets, and now they are diabetes-free. They aggressively push their understanding and their 'discoveries' to everyone. There is no one diet which can lead to diabetes cure. For the short time after weight loss sugar may get normal. Then there is another round, and diabetes getting to the higher level, one round after another. All pounds come back. Level of sugar getting higher.
     I am not Med. Pro. I do not give any advice to anyone. I just post my experience. Now I lost. All what I expected got up side down. I am really lost. Why dose of insulin suddenly get up? I tried to take dose of insulin back as it was before, 300 units daily dose. Right after one missed insulin shot next day fasting got over 120 mg/dl. I do not let sugar get higher, so I inject what keep my sugar under control, from 400 to 600 units. I just do not have my answer right now.
