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.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
