[QUOTE="JontyW, post: 351940, member: 40312"] Hi Bodybuilder type1, I'm sure we are all keen to learn the reasoning for you doing this rather large number of injections .. 9 per day? [b]I would call that about double the normal amount for a T1[/b]. Perhaps your UserName of "bodybuilder" is a clue, so I can understand that if you are doing strenuous exercises there would be a need for your 12 blood tests per day, but I really don't understand why you need to do so many injections if you are in GOOD control i.e. not many correction doses required. Please share with us why you test and particularly inject so often? I test & inject 4 times per day (x1 Lantus plus x3 Humalog for carbs plus infrequent correction not done with carb Humalog), plus occasional ad hoc tests pre driving etc. [b]If in control why is there any need for anymore?[/b] Jonty [/QUOTE]
