FBG this morning was 4.2

The high results settled down when my cold went and the weather became cooler.

I do not weigh them out except for my low sugar breakfast muesli, but am aware of what I am eating. What is the recommended carb level per day?

Thanks. My home diet is giving good readings and almost no low results, at the retreat it was vegan, low carb and low protein. I wasn't sleeping well and had a very bad cold.

I was recently away at a retreat centre for 15 days and was getting a lot of hypos because of low carbs. Now home, my usual fairly balanced menu I am getting high results. I am beginning to think I have a bad batch of Humulin or is it just the hot weather? I would appreciate your replies.

Apart from freedom from meter and needles, I don't miss anything because I factor in a treat and still get the right readings.

5.4 again

5.4 this morning.

I get similar leg muscle pains. I have fibromyalgia and arthritis so I never know what is causing any specific pain. Useful to know if more people who don't have all my symptoms get muscle pain.

Hi, I have been on Insulin now for just over 14 months. In that time I have been struggling to get the insulin : glucose balance right. My dosage is increasing and I am eating less but putting on fat around my abdomen seems wrong. Any advice?

I agree that you can be insulin dependent when diagnosed as type 2 as the body may cease to produce its own insulin after years of being type 2 on tablets. Moreover I was told that as I am type 2 I could not have a hypo, wrong, I have had quite a few including passing out completely and breaking...

I started on insulin in October, humulin combination twice a day but I had a lot of hypos and had to adjust a lot, now on a different mix during day and a slow acting mix at night 4 injections a day. I find that I am putting weight on at an alarming rate, 7kg since October, although am usually...
