Can exercising after meals work a bit like using rapid action insulin?

[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 1436388, member: 44643"] Hi, if and when I exercise after a meal, normally long walks, I have to take 2 to 3 units less, depending on my BS before I eat and how far I am walking. When I was diagnosed and back home, my mum who was a nurse, said 'why did it have to happen to you" because nursing runs in my family, but stops with me, I hated blood, injections the thought of stitches made me nearly faint, but we do it, we have to and the needles are so discreet and small, you hardly notice. In time is will get easier, but it can be a scary and an anxious time right now, but you can do, just believe in yourself :) Take care x:) [/QUOTE]
