I'm a bit confused, you have this post saying your doses are too high but another post saying you think you're insulin resistant. That doesn't make sense. If you were insulin resistant you wouldn't be going hypo

Seamer, as stated on other posts, with Novomix 30 you need to eat to stop the hypos. If you are going hypo then either reduce your insulin or eat more.

Unless you are very overweight and have big stomach, then I doubt very much that you have 'insulin resistance'. But in any case, only a doctor can confirm whether your weight gain leading to being overweight is causing you to need more insulin because of resistance.

Please stop looking at those other threads as I think they are making you get very confused.

For now just concentrate at dealing with the hypo feeling that you are getting and do what SamJB has mentioned. Eat a bit more carb food at certain meal times that lead you to becoming hypo and just keep testing your bg levels so that the extra food has the correct affect on your bg levels.

It's not healthy for anyone not to eat at least 100g of carbs a day at least. This is what your liver needs to have ur back up glucose emergency supply ( basically if u are hypo ur liver will do its best to sort it out) but if u don't eat that vital 100g carbs a day ur liver has nothing to supply u with as it turns these carbs to glucose to save u. Our body's are very very clever if we use them properly

Re: I have lower my insulin but i still go to hypo ... Then

In a basic form, insulin breaks down the sugar/glucose in your blood. If you are hypo you have broken down too much and your blood sugar is low.

If you're insulin resistant then your body struggles to use the insulin, whether you've injected it or it has come from your pancreas.

You describe hypo (low blood glucose) symptoms, therefore your body IS using the insulin. And so you're not insulin resistant.

Does that make more sense?
