[QUOTE="In Response, post: 2621915, member: 527103"] The right amount of insulin is the amount you need. This is dependent on many things including your weight, your diet, how much exercise you do, how your insulin is given and your insulin resistance. I am slim, very active with an insulin pump and i do not restrict my carbs at all. Twenty years after my Type 1 diagnosis, I take a total of about 30;units a day split between basal and bolus. On this regime, I maintain an HbA1C around 45 with TIR around 85%. But I strongly advise you against doing a comparison. Your dose is your dose because your body and your lifestyle is your body and your lifestyle. We are different so need different amount of insulin. [/QUOTE]
