Hi I have been using insulin for my diabetes for a while now but am as confused as ever, I am on Nova rapid three times a day and levimir at night but my night time readings are high I am trying to lose weight but having difficulty we eat our main meal at night well about 5 30 and I take my levimir at 8 30 then test about 10 15 am I doing this wrong I can,t seem to adjust my insulin for each meal if say I have a cooked meal and my blood before that meal is 6.0 I then am on 52 units then at night my blood would be about 11.0 having say 2 ryvita about 7pm do I ajust the 5 30 insulin or take mor at bedtime. Then say the next day at 5 30 I have a salad the same dose would be too high and my blood would drop too low I am feeling pretty useless at the moment and my hospital has changed my appointment again I haven't seen anyone in 6 months sorry to be a bit muddled hope you know what I mean best wishes Evelyn
