Hi everyone lovely sunny day here in Lincolnshire so makes me feel upbeat. I'm after some advice, I'm Type 1 by the way; as there are no DAFNE courses available in my area I have taught myself to carb count by reading books and reading tips etc on this wonderful forum and also by accessing the online "course" run from Bournemouth as kindly recommended by FergusCrawford. What I would like to know is if my BG reading before going to bed is above 7 what would be the minimum reading above 7 should I give myself a correction dose of fast acting insulin and by how much? Likewise I always test when I get up in the morning before breakfast what sort of reading would a correction dose be considered? Thanks enjoy the rest of the weekend Carole
