Cheers how long do you leave between the split ?

Again thank you for the advice, this was a thought I had also. As im new to them both I guess its getting that balance right. I want fiasp to work as ive heard good stuff about it and like you, my sister is a big fan of it.

Thankyou for this, ill certainly have a look.

I got put on this a month or so back and things where fine, did its job and my Blood sugars rarely spiked. However into my 5th week now and I'm finding them spiking a lot higher pretty much most of the time about 3 hours after a meal so I'm constantly having to correct. Now I'm sure I read...

Thanks for the comment, I agree that so far when it works it certainly works. Ive just become reliant over 20 years on novorapid and how my body reacted to it. I guess with anything new it takes time.

Are you finding, FIASP works better for you than Novorapid, reason i ask as i said ive been on it a week and seems a little unpredictable at the minute.

Just been switched to this from NovoRapid, bit touch and go at the minute but its only been a week so may have to give it time. Reacts totally different when i add a little extra to deal with alcohol (cider), but thats not an issue and its probably down to the potency rate (Bloods tends to go a...

This forum has helped me out immensely and I think it shows the power online forums and the sharing of experiences has on people. So I think the credit has to go to all the contributors to this forum and sharing their experiences.

Its been a tough journey and not always plain sailing, but there is only yourself that can make it better, and off course this forum helps too.

Just a quick one really. A year or so ago I started carb counting as my diabetes control was all over the place. Was a massive struggle at the beginning to get my head around it (I did make a few posts on here as I was struggling). Anyway i persevered with it and the struggles I had ( looking on...

Thank you for the responses I really do appreciate it, I know its a learning curve but unfortunately in my kind of work I'm used to results straight away and I know this is different. Just need to be patient I guess.

This is what confuses me, do you inject before or after meals or does it depend on what your eating. I know some carbs are fast acting and some are not.

Ive been looking at my condition in the total wrong way in the past that's what I've been doing, but it seemed to work albeit not great bg levels. I totally get the concept behind carb counting I'm just struggling to adjust, over think a lot and probably checking my sugars way too much. This...

Good evening, this is not a question as such its just a statement I guess and curious to how others adjusted to carb counting (and experiences) as I don't feel I have anyone to turn to as sad as that sounds. After 19 years of being a diabetic and with no introduction to carb counting, I kind...

Spot on lol, you know your oven chips then

Thanks for the advice, I guess its all about trial and error while your trying to figure all this out.

Good evening, Can anyone recommend the best way to count these from the packaging. Is it carbs at frozen or after cooked. For example it says 22.8 grams carbs per 100 grams frozen. so I weighed 205 grams which gave me a total of 46.74 of carbs. Weighing after cooked there was 138grams. The...

Thank you all for the advice. Yes I am type 1 and hopefully over time this carb counting will be less confusing.

Good morning I have a quick question as google is giving conflicting answers. I've recently started practicing carb counting so been monitoring my blood sugars closely. Anyway I had a few pints of strong bow last night and I noticed my blood sugars go up. Can alcohol affect blood sugars. Is it...
