[QUOTE="fractureman, post: 619117, member: 49864"] Your ratio is 1 as for every 10g of carb you inject 1 unit. As said earlier you are correcting too much. We all do things not great at times don't worry about it. You'll get poor hba1c from hypos as the bounce back 'liver dumping sugar' causes the yo-yo effect. The course will first try to establish when the hypo happens & cut them out. Once you've got them sorted calculating humalog becomes easier. Also for any reading below 4.0 you need 20g of quick acting sugar (fruit juice in kids lunch box size) orange apple or pineapple provides this. It's still as well so easy to drink & carry. As opposed to fat coke. You need to back any hypo up with complex carbs (sandwich or pasta ) as the sugar hit bring mind back normal but the cause of the lowering sugar level may still be there so the snack will prevent a repeat hypo. Don't worry about it too much we're all here to help ;) [/QUOTE]
