Not really, I just want a bit advice regarding insulin.
Free Money will get more views than something like... insulin advice.
Anyway I had sausage and chips for tea from the chippy as a treat. Before food my reading was 5.0 and I took 4u novorapid.
2 hrs later 6.7
3 hrs 9.6
And 4.5 hrs 11.7.
I was happy with the 2 hr reading but knew the food would digest slow and I would get a later spike.
When this happens is it common practice to take a few units as a correction dose? And if so would it be better after the 2 or 3 hour reading?
Also I'm still honeymooning and readings are a bit erratic, normally a lot lower than the spike ive just had.
Cheers John.
