[QUOTE="Jacquelineann, post: 890356, member: 190946"] Thank you all for your replies. One of the main problems is that I am in Spain and the medical system is different here. I don't think the medics are unhelpful, but by their own admission they don't know much about diabetes so I am having to work out a lot by myself. This is interesting that basically I should cater for the fast acting percentage of the dose in the amount of carbs I take per meal. I had been doing that and was having severe hypos and therefore it seemed logical to me that I should also be "catering" carbo-wise for the slow acting percentage. To simplify - if I have 4 units (in total) humaglog 25, I need 4 "units" (10-15grms each) of carbs. But maybe not? I will read the link that has been kindly posted and see if I can get anywhere with it. I actually would much prefer a basal/bolus regime. It will be the 4th different treatment I have received and they may be getting a tad fed up with me, but I have to get this right. [/QUOTE]
