- People telling me how to control my diabetes. My health. Isms. People walking their dogs off leads in illegal areas. Meat that bleeds. Late buses.
This is definitely getting into more advanced management than the OP should consider for now, but I don't worry about that - if I'm high and still have insulin on board from my last bolus, I'll not let that stop me injecting more. Obviously the stuff left in the body needs taking account of, but I reckon corrections go both ways (insulin or food) at any time. This approach does need a lot of testing though, or of course libre/CGM.
They asked I answered.
Also I would disagree. Any new diabetic should be told to allow their insulin to pan out before reacting. It is what their HCP need to move forward.
