[QUOTE="yipster29, post: 75591, member: 15816"] Hi Dennis I'm a newly diagnosed type 1 so by no means the oracle on all things insulin but I would completely back up what Pheonix said. At 9 before a meal I would add a unit of insulin as a correction and even a low carb meal I would need a couple of units. I use Levirmir overnight so don't split although a lot of people on here do seem to need to, I was running higher than I should have been between meals and found adjustments led to dropping too low so DN swapped me to half unit pens which has made surprisingly large difference.. may be worth considering. Also agree re work / rest days... I def need less insulin on day off as more active. Stick at it you'll get there! [/QUOTE]
