[QUOTE="Josef1980, post: 562748, member: 111843"] [SIZE=3]Basal testing does not "shows when the action of long acting insulin (e.g. Lantus) fades and ends" [/SIZE]whether[SIZE=3] it lasts for 24 Hours or less/more It (the Basal test that is) only tells you that you need to adjust the dosage i.e. increase/decrease it. It also does not take into account many other variables such as your level of activity during that day or what type of food did you eat how many meals did you eat... i.e. how sensitive to insulin ([/SIZE]insulin[SIZE=3] resistance) your body is in a particular day. Unlike the fast acting NovoRapid where you can know exactly when it ends. There is no Meter or device that you can use that says you have 0 (zero) or any number of insulin in your body at a given time [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
