Hi @revive@2

Sorry, but your message/question is not very clear to me.

So, you inject exactly the same every day?

Do you change the insulin dose to match you food?

You need to get advice from your medical team about adjusting the dose to suit your food intake.

and ye that ok at 1/2 11 when I test ?do any one else eat snack befor bed she says don't control with food but that means I go from 7 till 9 next morning on water and it stupid only my thoughts ??/

When I was on mixed insulin I needed a snack before bed. When you have lowered injection were you advised how much to lower it by? I would speak to her again if you are still going low after you've reduced it so she can advise further
