[QUOTE="RonG, post: 184799, member: 33166"] Hi, Have only been diagnosed this year with diabetes following half my pancreas being removed a couple of years ago. I'm on a long acting insulin which i take in the evening, and the quick acting ones that I take alongside my meals, and all is going very well. But recently - nice weather and wife's demands ;-) - I've started doing a lot more exercise/ work and if I take the short acting insulin then my glucose levels goes down too much and I have to start drinking something fizzy. So now I sometimes don't take at all the short acting insulin if I know that I'm going to be eg painting a ceiling / mowing the lawn. That seems to keep my blood sugar levels absolutely fine - but is that ok??? does it mean that the food isn't getting intomy body?? Would be grateful for any advice! Thank you. Ron [/QUOTE]
