[QUOTE="loopyloo, post: 94283, member: 883"] Hi all Havent posted for ages but still avidly read everyone elses! I have been low carbing for 18months now with all the usual excellent results. reduced weight, insulin doseage, much more stable bg readings. I have just had my hospital review and I was keen to discuss how I can refine my insulin dose as I currently use half dose pens but still cant fine tune enough as only take 1 unit at breakfast, 1 at lunch and 2 for my eve meal. I was really disappointed to be told that basically I need to relax my control, and that it's fine to run my bg's into 10 or 12 after meals :roll: To be fair, the consultant said he would look into my suggestion of diluting the insulin to give me more leeway but to be honest I'm not holding my breath. I was very pleased with my test results, as they were - which is why I dont understand their saying to loosen control. Feeling a wee bit frustrated at the mo. :| [/QUOTE]
