[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2026340, member: 503481"] Hello! before DAFNE and when my consultant decided to change me from mixtard 30 to novorapid and levemir, I was told it was okay to either take it before eating or after eating. Since I did DAFNE, I had my hair ripped out by my DSN for taking insulin after food. She did not look happy :shifty: Back in SE london, doctors were not happy with me using up test strips and novorapid before my next prescription. But they were fantastic for getting back to me as well and at that time she had nothing against me for asking for more novorapid. Since I moved, I have yet to develop a conclusion because DSN hasn't got back to me yet. For me, it depends on what im eating, usually sauces like sweet and sour sauce kicks in quite quickly and white bread. So I notice i'm running high after eating and if I took my insulin after. However before the libre sensor and the DAFNE course, taking my injection after and waiting until my next meal, i'm not running high. With my sensor I'm noticing i'm running high after food within the first hour, then drop and settle. So I don't really see a difference if I were to take my insulin before or after, i'm running high either way and will settle. I have yet to experience where I don't run high after food, along with liver dump in the mornings. :banghead: [/QUOTE]
