[QUOTE="Sweet3x, post: 14010, member: 8101"] I have a curious situation. Well, it is to me, anyway :) I am taking my Lantus about 4 hours later than I should. I did a blood test just to see if or how much Humalog I needed, and my result was 3.3 Yesterday, woke up at 8am as normal, and took my Lantus. Went back to sleep because I was really tired only having had about 4 hours sleep. Then woke at about 11, pottered around, showered, did stuff on the pc etc. At about 1pm, I'd did a blood test which was 15 so I took 3 units of Humalog and we went to MacD's - I had some fries but since my sugar was a bit high, I didn't eat too much. Just about a regular portion (UK/EU regular size, btw, which may be different from US regular size for all our US friends). At around 4pm, we'd gone to a bar, and I had a regular portion of french fries (again, this is Paris so it wasn't huge ;)) and a really sugary cocktail. This was after walking a fair amount, since about 1pm. No more insulin, though. Last night, I had a huge Caesar Salad (lettuce, chicken, dressing, croutons, bread on the side) sometime between 10pm and midnight but I think around 10:30. Between 9 and midnight I also drank about a pint of Strongbow (cider). So, having only taken 3 units of Humalog, at around 1pm yesterday and my regular Lantus, how can my sugar level now only be 3.3? Since my Lantus today is so late. [/QUOTE]
