Hi, I've been put on Novorapid, the endicrinologist said to start on 6 units and increase it a couple if that doesn't work, ok, so 20 minutes before i eat i've been taking this jab and 2 days ago I took 10 units but the only carbs i had was in a lamb stew with carrots, brussels and broad beans and i had the most dreadful night, i went up to 19 and woke up on 18 and felt light headed, it's actually the worst i've ever felt since being diabetic. Now, i went through the internet and found a chart and advice saying the lower my carbs the higher the dose and vice versa.. what's all that? as far as the endi's concerned, just up the dose if it doesn't bring my sugars down, i'm currently also on 80 units of Toujeo per day, i was on Canagliflozin until recently but it started giving me boils so hence why i'm now on this Novorapid, any advise would be welcome, i'm trying to understand this chart but ever since i had cancer treatment my brain is fried and i find things ever so confusing.
