[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1585768, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=441787]@NoKindOfSusie[/USER] - Do you have any quick acting insulin on board when you are running ? Have you tried eating something like a small banana before you head out so you have some carbs on board ? I try to run in the morning without any quick acting on board as I find my levels stay steady during the run, I also try to head out and be above 8. It would be great to see you get to a place where you can go out for a run without the need to check say within 30 minutes, so setting small targets to aim for - how long were you running for prior to your diagnosis ? Do remember this is early days for you so getting used to your insulin regime as well as recovering from your DKA episode. Also running shouldn't affect your lantus absorption. I'm also tagging [USER=265172]@Snapsy[/USER] as she also is a keen runner with some good tips :) [/QUOTE]
