BS between 7 and 10mml in the morning and between 6 and 11 mml before bed. It's rather hit and miss as am chasing the insulin with food throughout the day to keep my BS over 5 or 6 and have them over 10 before I go to bed. I am eating carbs which I don't really want. I have reduced my insulin from 24 units prior to breakfast to 20 units and from 35 units to 30 before my evening meal. I am due to have my HBa1c checked next week. Last one was 7.3 a few months ago.

Hiya Polly,
Hope all goes well with your doc and the insulin he gives you. Maybe take a friend and / or a notepad is often a good idea. Anyways your doc will have all the results etc. I think this website is great for info. Please post what he prescribes and why if you can?
BTW, I think you need digestive problems (usually prescribed creon) to be 3c. (?). Lol, hangon, do you just need the maldigestion or just the destruction of the alpha cells to be classed type 3c?
Also earlier in the thread you said "not much insulin" then described 50 units novomix / day. Not that it matters much, but that seemed quite a lot.
Cheers Sean
Type 3 or rather Type 3c is diabetes caused by damage to the pancreas - there is a sub-forum for people with Type 3c: http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/type-3c-pancreatic-diabetes.73/Sorry for asking this but Type 3 - does this mean you all have Alzheimers, are more likely to get Alzheimers - I'm not too sure I understand what Type 3 is. xx
