[QUOTE="Deleted member 45091, post: 2506138"] Hi managed to check ketones through a urine stick, my sister has them as she's a nurse associate. Walking sounds a good idea but like I said I dont leave the house alot now, as before I used to get panic and anxiety attacks going out so stopped doing it, now as i feel so unwell all the time I don't do next to nothing, sugars at 21 still today, had 4 units of insulin at dinner but started coming down fast again and ended up having around 80 grams of carbs and it's around the same so In a way it's good it would of come down if I didn't have extra carbs but it's not put it up either, and when it does come down it comes down really fast IE 10mmol sometimes in 30 minutes and I dont know when it's going to stop crashing so reluctant to let it get to normal ranges when it crashes so fast and I don't know why, and as I live on my own I probably do correct alot earlier than I should.
