Message: <blockquote data-quote="Harry2001" data-source="post: 2363852" data-attributes="member: 537818">Hi,I am currently 19 years old, 53kg, 5 10" and was diagnosed 3 years ago. Initially i started on a 1:18 ratio which was fine for most of the time and that slowly worked its way down to 1:10. During last summer i was on 1:6 and in the space of 1-2 months that rapidly changed to 1:24 with no serious lifestyle changes. Currently, i have been sitting around 1:4 to 1:5 which seems way too much for someone of my weight, height and age (19 years old, 53kg, 5 10", 8% body fat). This is making me worried when im injecting and im paranoid that i will end up having a massive hypo so im typically eating 20-30g of carbs per meal but this is not a sustainable solution. Ive spoken to the hospital several times and they were not helpful as to why i have seen these extreme changes.My questions are: 1. is this very unusual for somone of my weight, height, age etc? 2. is there anything i can do to slowly raise the ratio to around 1:8?</blockquote>
