6.7 a.m 6.1 at bedtime

4.2 Went to bed on 6 - low for me. I felt very hungry, ate a small thin biscuit & mascapone to avert ? a low @ night.

I think I said the right thing to the right people at the right time. My GP is very kind but kept saying youre under control but I didnt feel it. Also theres been a reshuffle . The diabetes nurse left - i could never get the info I wanted. One of the GPs took over as Lead of the Diabetic team...

@Lily21 Thanks for the story . Type 1 sounds a complex. Im glad U R getting sorted and settled I am now on Humulin 1 for Type 2 ( 1 dose) My GP (the lead diabetic on, rumoured to have diabetes himself ) started me on 50% of the Levemir dose at Humulin 10 units. He said that the Practice didnt...

@KennyA Im not familiar with studies from the US. The British government seems keen on us not taking high amounts of saturated fat and pushes the use of statins. The main use i make of fat content is to check labels, if somee packet has a lower sat fat than another I buy it....... the other...

@Lily21 i Lily Hi , what was your fear at using 1 unit. Im type 2 , my doc gave me 10 units as a starter dose 1/2 the Levemir. I went with that , as the previous dose of Levemir would still be in my body (maybe explain your low)and I'd Id rather go high than low. We worked together me...

The latest news. Today I am happy, feel self worth, eating well. Enjoying food Today bought a child's blueberry ice cream in a tub - 5.4 4 hours later. What happened.? A community consultant wrote to my Gp about my obvious worry & concern. My GP said i didnt qualify for outside help...

@sugarless sue Carbohydrate has 4 calories per gm. Protein has 4 calories per gm Fat has 9 calories per gm. Thank you for this Sue. I have an unusual weight issue. These figures could be of great help, With the assumption that one has to be mindful of sat fat. Im looking to find 250...

6.1 @ 10pm 5.9 being unused to low readings , afraid of nightime low, i took 1/2 slice rye bread with hummous.

@KennyA Thanks for the explanation . I brought up the late lowering of my fingerprick readings after meals, with the GP who's overseeing the swop to Houmulin 1 for Levemir replacement. He was happy to receive my 4 hr readings after meals while phasing out Levemir . That satisfies me . Its...

:)

The GP and I agree on 16 units a.m. Im taking it 1/2 hr later than b4, which was on waking. The GP said it was ok to go high to begin with for a few days on 10. 12 or higher As I rose to 14 units then 16 things flattened out but with a few hypos. Having studied science i realised the need to...
