Hello, Feeling of nausea is not necessarily related hypperglycemia. It may be related to dyspepsia (indigestion). If you been put on Lantus and if the fasting glucose is high, (you have not mentioned whether glucose level is fasting, Pp or random). You may have to adjust the dosage of Lantus. First target fasting glucose and see that it is brought closer to 100 mg. Later PP glucose can be targeted. Insulin dose can be increased every third day till desired glucose level is achieved. You will have to coordinate with your local doctor for this. Thanks.
