[QUOTE="Paulyw74, post: 2279391, member: 523721"] Hi. Just an update. I've been continuing cutting carbs and reducing the amount of insulin but maybe not by enough. Woke this morning with a reading of 2.9 (a few glasses of wine last night may have been a bad idea?) so panicked a bit and ate a couple of biscuits then had my new breakfast of natural Greek yoghurt and some berries. Took another reading a couple of hours later and the reading was up to 8.0. Later the level was down to 6.3 so I did my other (reduced) injection before having Sunday lunch (with a small amount of mash but mainly chicken, cauliflower, cabbage etc). Levels then dropped again to 3.7 so I've had a couple of weetabix and will check again later before bed. Really tough knowing how much to cut while still injecting insulin. Speaking to the nurse again tomorrow and see whats next. P. [/QUOTE]
