[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2664419, member: 372207"] I don't have a link at hand, but I think [USER=101136]@Jaylee[/USER] has a useful link on basal testing. As for the bolus, it's mainly about logging carbs, insulin and before and after food numbers to find out how much insulin you need for how many carbs at what time of day. Takes some patience though, and diabetes likes to change the rules mid-game. :bored: It can still give you a very good idea on what you need though. It's not as if your diabetes nurse magically knows your ratios, she just makes an educated guess as well. Very happy I've made you feel a bit better about it! :joyful: [/QUOTE]
