Well this is interesting - are the dosages due to ones weight at all - I only ask because I am a large lady - not your typical thin type 1 and I take larger amounts than most and my ratios are higher too? (not that I am implying that all of you who take larger amounts are large like me of course
)
Also my breakfast is better than the rest of the day which is in reverse as well I believe!
I do exercise regularly though and only eat moderate carbs generally.
Morning - 1 unit per 9 carbs (usually 45 cho)
Lunch - 1 unit per 5 carbs (usually 45 cho)
Dinner - 1 unit per 5 carbs + 1 metformin which I was put on in June but not sure why (usually about 50 cho)
Lantus (at bedtime) 24 units
I have finally been given my DAFNE dates starting 15th Jan - can't wait I was diagnosed in April last year and have been winging quite well it since. Well apart from Christmas when I made a complete mess of it and ran higher than usual - better than having a hypo Christmas I suppose!
