Quick question.....
If I'm doing a 1:10 carb to Insulin ratio as advised by my Diabetic Nurse; does that include BOTH Bolus and Basil, or just the Basil? - She said "Fix fasting sugars first" - which I've done. i'm now getting around 4->5mmol in a morning (Bonus!) - my problem is I'm on 24 units of long acting insulin (Tresiba) If I do the 1:10 on the fast acting with meals (having counted the carbs) I feel at risk of sinking into a hypo :/ (had a few near misses - testing 8 times/day and stopping on top of it like a trojan warrior) - I left a message with the clinic, but as usual noone has got back to me lol - any advice would be gratefully recieved.
