I'm on 10 units of the background insulin and that alone keeps me at 16mmol.
I had to speak to a different diabetes nurse who told me to start injecting 4 units of the quick acting stuff at meals.
I had the first quick acting just before lunch. Tuna sandwich and at 14:50 I felt different no symptoms of a hypo but I knew it felt wrong. All I had done I walk around asda looking for steak.
Checked my blood and I was a 4.1. Drank a can of coke and now before tea I'm 14.4.
The drs is shut so I can't ask them but do I reduce the amount of quick acting? Or cut out the quick acting and up the background?
