[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 555010, member: 12578"] Hi Twister, I think that the online course is good but it is aimed at adults . As a young person you are still growing so your insulin needs may vary much more than adults. As Jack says it's best to contact your nurse to help you with changing doses. As you are obviously interested, you should also ask her about learning to adjust the insulin according to the carb content. There is a book, produced by a British dietitian, that shows the carb content of many foods in different portion sizes. A lot of people seem to find really helpful when they start to carb count . You can get it either as a book or an app. [url]http://www.carbsandcals.com/area/diabetes/type-1-diabetes-diet/[/url] [/QUOTE]
