[QUOTE="SamJB, post: 439786, member: 45322"] Is it the third time after your evening meal? If so, looks like the evening meal insulin dose is too high. My insulin sensitivity changes throughout the day, so don't expect the insulin:carb ratio to be consistent throughout the day. Perhaps have the same amount of carbs for evening meal for a week or so until you've figured it out. A hypo an hour and a half after injecting is a classic symptom of too much short acting insulin. It does sound like an awful lot of carbs that she's had to treat the hypo. Is she recently diagnosed? Could be that she's in something calked the honeymoon period where her pancreas will start producing insulin for a short time before finally giving up. As you'd expect, it does increase hypo frequency. Sounds like you're doing all the right things to me in terms if carb counting and hypo treatment. Poor kid, I know what it's like and can imagine how she's feeling. [/QUOTE]
