hi, i had tea tonight then took usual amount of novo rapid, i went for a 25min walk, when i got home i was at 3.4, is it normal for bs reading to drop down below set base insulin? im also low carbing.
 
Probably!
especially if low carbing
 
I can do this with my own self-produced insulin. If you wait until things have settled down, an hour or two after eating, you probably won't get such a huge drop. I use it as a party trick when eating out and I can't avoid too many carbs, sneak out and yomp round the village immediately after eating. Can be a bit hard to control the effect though, once I had to put Real Sugar in my coffee due to overdoing it a bit.
