[QUOTE="ROE100, post: 2359783, member: 11546"] Hi cbish8 I think as you are 3 months in this 10 carbs is after you have treated your hypo with 15 quick acting carbs which seems to be the general guidance. However as we all seem to say you need to work out what works for your body which is not always the same each time. Sometimes I only need 10 semi quick acting and stay ok more many hours but sometimes I need a lot more similar to the guidance, so if you need to understand your signs (of hypo's) and test & test, But understand as you are 3 months in this is not easy. Please note if I always follow the guidance I could be in the mid 10's and hour later and stay there so I have to careful. It has been suggested it depends on when your hypo occurred in terms of when you last had an injection & last ate & what you ate and how quick you are falling - which all sounds too much to get your head round. But the trick is to test after your hypo and work out what seems best for you, yes start with the guidance and if this works then great follow it. Roe100 [/QUOTE]
