Hi,
It's been awhile since I did DAFNE and I no longer see a DAFNE trained diabetes nurse (long story). I was always taught that if your levels were higher than 7 then you should take a correction, however my DN now says that unless my levels are over 10 then I do not need to take a correction. Is this true as I don't see how I would ever get my levels between 4-7.
Also I was told that I should be injecting 10-20 minutes before I eat? Do other people do this? I weigh my food so do not see how this is possible for most meals?
