[QUOTE="kaylz91, post: 2193615, member: 358175"] Sorry I know I'm Type 1 but slow acting insulin may not be the only insulin you are given, if things have gotten too much they may want to introduce a basal/bolus regime so slow acting and a fast acting to take when you consume carbs as well, if you do go onto any insulin then it can take a while to get the dose right so you may stay as you are due to the dose being too low or end up with lows if the dose is too much, when first started on insulin they generally base it from your weight etc so it is a complete guess to start off with, if you have any questions about insulin then I'm quite happy to answer those if I can but remember us Type 1's started off from scratch as well so we had to learn just the same a Type 2s would so don't discount help from them xx [/QUOTE]
