[QUOTE="Siné, post: 1224978, member: 178916"] Thanks all for your suggestions- will definitely try the gels for busy days carrying heavy bags etc To explain about the slight hypos: The ideal blood sugar is below 7, whereas for me I can feel a slight hypo at about 4.1... It really doesn't take that much activity / energy for me to use up those 3 mg. So I've always found it incredibly difficult to master that slight window between ideal and starting to go low.. My insulin dosages are Actrapid 6, 5, 6 and Insulatard at 14 units I was surprised when attending a group diabetes meeting that most people were taking 3 times the insulin for eating pretty much the same food/ activity. and the d. nurse said I was very sensitive to the insulin. Wondering does any one else find this? [/QUOTE]
