[QUOTE="miahara, post: 2508551, member: 256148"] Hi [USER=519637]@Carl W[/USER] . Forget the 'sugars' all you need to think about is 'carbs' as they are what you need to take into account as the 'sugars' are just a part of the overall carbohydrate intake. You really need to keep a diary of your carb/insulin regimen to see how things are going as you'll find that your carb:insulin ratio can vary quite markedly during the day. I need very much more insulin per carb at breakfast than I do for my evening meal. From what you say it seems like you need to try upping your insulin a bit. The 1:10 ratio is just a ballpark generalisation and a starting point for further experimentation. Try upping insulin for a few days and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
