[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 2213537, member: 90156"] Its a mixed insulin you are using, so a 70/30 split of basal/bolus........... the doses you are on don't really translate to a certain amount of carbs......you will need to observe your blood sugar levels and decide whether or not the 52 units is enough to keep you reasonably stable right up until dinner time.....so your breakfast and lunch.....if you test and your exceptionally high at lunch and at dinner, then you could assume the 52 isn't enough....or that you are eating too many carbs, whatever way you want to look at it......so from there you can make adjustments with the dose [with help from your diabetes team] and/or your diet.... the same goes with the evening dose.....that needs to deal with your dinner and anything after that until the morning.....same approach applies... so get a meter and start testing, knowledge is power....;) [/QUOTE]
