[QUOTE="Mimastones, post: 500606, member: 75362"] Hi! i haven't read through all the comments so dont know if im just reiterating what others are saying. I assume you are diagnosed type 1? I'm on the same insulin regime and i do always take between 4 and 15 depending on what i've eaten and what my blood sugar reading was before I ate. I always have a slice of toast or small bowl of cereal if my reading is under 6 before bed. But since you are so recently diagnosed i would agree with the advice from your medical team. You are probably still in the honeymoon period, so might still be producing small amounts of insulin. they are probably waiting till you have a longer term, consistent pattern of readings and then they will advise any adjustments then. it takes a little while till you know what your body needs and when so be patient, and good luck!
