[QUOTE="T1Mike, post: 2458551, member: 550444"] Thank you EllieM. A follow-up question to this is: are there any "rules of thumb" or recommendations on how much extra might be needed? I assume it is specific to each person but would like to learn a bit more on this as I have had a number of situations where I end up correcting a few times based on what I thought was an acceptable correction dose. Then my BG finally drops quickly, sometimes a few hours later, to the point of going low. Like Hopeful34 stated, it seems like injecting water to begin with. Then it seems to kick into "turbo" mode and work too quickly. [/QUOTE]
