I had my granddaughter to look after this morning and forgot to take my insulin. I didn't notice till 12ish although I was feeling ill. So annoyed at myself. I usually take 36 Novomix at breakfast, so, I took 20 at 12 noon to see if that would sort me. I still feel a bit 'off'. Should I have taken the full 36?

What was your blood sugar at the time? if it was within normal or mild elevate ranges it would have covered but if it it was very elevated it may not have been enough to manage it.
