[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2061168, member: 372717"] Two ways to do this really. 1) Have extra insulin with your meal and hope it doesn't send you hypo before you snack. 2) Have an extra injection with the snack. Up to you and your body as to which one works (maybe you can get away with no insulin at all if you've been active?), but there's only one way to tell. Blood test. As regards stacking insulin, not (in my opinion) an issue if you know what you're doing (probably means yet more tests:)). You just need to be aware of any insulin still in your system when you add more.... [/QUOTE]
