[QUOTE="alaska, post: 261084, member: 14213"] Thanks Pneu I saw in your other thread you were also on 10+ injections a day and were measuring halfway through the night which helps to add to how you were able to tightly manage your levels. I'm getting towards 10 injections a day. I'm on 3 Levemir injections a day, 3 main Humalog injections + around 3 or so for corrections and any between meal snacks. Since going onto 3 injections of 7 units of Levemir, my control has improved and the highs during late afternoon and before bed have been reduced to normal levels. The times I have forgotten to inject around 3pm have resulted in some higher levels but only as bad as the level;s I was getting around that time on 2 basal injections a day. So, so far it's going well. To solve the test strips conundrum, I dug out some strips from an old meter which turned out to give good (albeit slightly higher) results than my new meter. I wouldn't recommend using old strips usually but I was testing with my new meter as much as I would normally to check the old strips weren't way off mark. Ed [/QUOTE]
