[QUOTE="Japes, post: 2517366, member: 277410"] Welcome to the forums and the best place I've found for reassurance and support. Sorry about all the reasons, though, and I hope recovery continues well. It takes quite a while for things to settle as your team works out what you need. 1 unit to 10 grams of carbs is a common starting point and may well change. I have a similarly "odd" pattern as I need more insulin in the mornings than the evenings and it's always been that way. It took me quite a while to get used to that. (I mean, 5 units for some plain yogurt in the morning which only needs 2 units for the same amount in the evenings. It's silly, but there it is...) I am on different insulin ratios for each meal, and depending on the amount of activity as well! Slobbing on the sofa days need more than 15 miles of walking days. [/QUOTE]
