[QUOTE="Shiba Park, post: 1692075, member: 329563"] Caveat: I'm not a big drinker! What has worked for me for me is missing my evening basal injection. My logic is that a 'normal' person's pancreas would stop secreting insulin while the liver is busy with the alcohol. As basal cannot be suspended unless using a pump, the next best thing is having no basal. This works for me as I use Levemir. I'd be really interested to hear what others view on my reasoning are; I'm due for a couple of nights out in Finland and want to stay safe with my hospitable, /generous/alcoholic! hosts. [/QUOTE]
