[QUOTE="Michelle6557, post: 1603876, member: 188099"] My fasting readings are between 12-17 and that is the same through the day. As I’m low carb, slim and my bs readings don’t change much during the day (probably due to my diet), the consultant wanted to start me on basal only to lower my background readings. She didn’t think I’d need bolus for quite a while. First step I guess is to get more basal. I’ve had a few lower readings since started on 2 units a night 4 nights ago but not enough. It may not help that I’m fighting a cold. !! [/QUOTE]
