I'm 20yo female, been type 1 diabetic for 9 yrs, have been a forum lurker but this is my first post.
At the mo I am splitting Levemir 12u in the morning and before bed.
Having 12ish units of Humalog before meals, I'm not low carbing or anything but trying to be a bit healthy.
Doing DAFNE/carb counting in 1 weeks' time...can't wait!
...ANYWAY my question was I go so high after breakfast, most mornings are a total write off.
Cause it's been so high I've upped my morning dose to 14u. I only eat 2 slices of wholemeal toast with vegemite and spread. It's doing my nut in!
My specialist said that for that kind of meal I should be having 8 units maximum!
Totally confused.
If anyone experiences this too/has any advice for me, it would be much appreciated
