Hi,
Sorry if this seems like a silly question but I am still waiting to see my consultant following diagnosis! I am doing pretty well with carb counting using the basal/bolus regime but had a question about bolus insulin.
If for example I was to go out for a meal, injected insulin to cover the carbs in my meal but decided after I had finished that I would like a dessert too (just like a "normal" person would have the flexibility to do!) Then would I be able to give myself an additional bolus injection for this too? I only wondered as I understand NovoRapid is active for some time after injecting so would it be possible to give yourself another injection to cover the extra carbs too?
Hope that makes sense! Thanks in advance.
