[QUOTE="azure, post: 1191401, member: 39639"] I'm no doctor but I would think that its very possible you may need basal insulin. Even if you only needed a tiny amount (I was on 1 unit early in diagnosis) that might help. Your insulin to carb ratio does seem very high, and as others have said, that could be the lack of basal. Regarding not being to,d your actual numbers, I had that problem with my surgery. I'd ask a result and be told "It's fine" so I'd reply "Great - what's the actual number" get back "Doctor says it's fine" so I'd just smile and keep repeating that I wanted the actual figure. In the end, they gave it to me. You have a right to know your own medical information. Just be polite but persistent, like a broken record. Could you change doctors or travel elsewhere? [/QUOTE]
