Do you not get them on prescription?

I won’t lie I injected literally 20 seconds before I ate my toast... I don’t tend to have a set routine, sometimes I won’t even eat breakfast, sometimes il wake up and go straight to eat, it might be worth pointing out that this isn’t specific to breakfast, this has happened for every meal I’ve...

Hopefully someone can help, I’m just at my wits end now, have no idea what to do or to try and understand what’s going on, this morning, my BG was 5.6, ate 3 pieces of toast and it’s not 2 hours after I ate and my BG is !!!17!!!, I posted the other day and people suggested that I change my pens...

Just did a bit of reading on good ol google, and I’ve got a feeling I’m maybe having absorption issues, have been injecting my novorapid in my stomach ever since diagnosis (mid December) so gonna try a different site and I reckon that’ll be what’s causing it

I’ll replace the cartridge now and see if it makes a difference later in the day whenever I eat next, but as I said it’s happening at every meal, but I’ll definitely try what you suggest! But I’m not holding my breath as I have a few disposable pens left over from when they first diagnosed me...

I don’t know if anyone can advise on what to do next, this morning when I woke up my BG was 6.2, I had 4 slices of toast which worked out to be about 80g of carbs, my carb to insulin ratio is 1 unit for every 7g carbs, but recently it seems my insulin hasn’t been working well so I changed to 1...

I simply haven’t been eating carbs, so I haven’t been taking bolus insulin, been working for almost 2 weeks now

Well for the last 2 weeks I’ve been on less than 10g carbs a day and my BG have just not dropped or risen, except for one occasion and I was already eating out so I just ate like 4 chips and it sorted itself lol

Ah I see, sorry! Although technically I wasn’t asking for advice on my dosage, my question is theoretically would reducing a basal dose raise my fasting BG levels :p

**edit** to clear up any confusion, my intention in reducing my basal is to raise my fasting/normal bf levels to ‘safer’ numbers

See; I’ve not experienced the lows after exercise since I’ve been on the keto diet, my BG levels have been so stable, went on a 3 hour bike ride the other day and checked my BG Every hour and there was literally no change, Same with the hours of football I’ve done this week, no drop, where as...

T1D RECENTLY DIAGNOSED Hello, I was wondering anyone would help me, Recently I’ve been doing the ketogenic diet, 10 days in now, my BG levels have been REALLY stable, I’m talking no less than 4.3 and no more than 4.9, apart from 2 occasions it’s dropped to high twos, so my question is, if I...

I’ll take a look at the ebook now cheers! The last 2 days, my meals haven’t warranted any bolus injection (at most my meals have been 4g of carbs) so I’ve only been having my basal injection. Do you think maybe a good idea would to be just wait a while until my body is Keto adjusted before...

Weird how different peoples bodies work, went on a 50km bike ride on Tuesday and my BG dropped from 8mmol to around 4.5, ate a few sweets to bring it up slightly and it didn’t come down again at all.

Newly diagnosed T1 here, asked a question on here the other day and got some really helpful answers so I’m gonna ask another if that’s cool.. I’m prepared for people to call me out or tell me I’m silly, but 2 days ago I started the Keto diet, been meticulously counting carbs and have been...
