I found my original carb ratios were too high and my bloods weren't lowering for hours after eating, I've adjusted them for different times of the day, i.e. lower carb ratios for breakfast and lunch but higher in the evening and they're working really well but my DN isn't happy - she feels I should be on a standard carb ratio through the day. Can I ask what others do please?
 
Standard - some are but most have different carb ratios for each meal. I have 3 ratios for breakfast, dinner and supper. I also find that when I have to tweak my 12 basal rates I often end up having to tweak these bolus ratios also. You need to go back to her I think
