[QUOTE="Sgathach, post: 2218585, member: 519791"] Thank you very much for your answers, I also updated my profile a bit as requested, I hope it works :) I have to admit I was very scared this morning and may have cried before I did it but the injection really wasn't a problem and I got over myself. During the day I dropped to normal range, 127 before lunch, 124 2h after lunch. I had oat yoghurt as a snack and before training I was at 148. Within 1 hour of training I had dropped to 84 and got a bit of a shock. I had banana and nuts with me and had that and continued class. After 20minutes warm up I felt a bit shaky and checked, but it was back up to 94 and by the end of 2nd class it was at 118. I didnt want to risk 3rd class as I didnt have more food on me so I went home and there I was back to 100. Now I'm wondering....if my levels are normal, am I taking the same dose of insulin tomorrow morning? And for exercise in general, do i have to preload carbs to be able to last or is it ok to eat during workouts? Like banana, nuts etc? Do i need to worry now I'll drop super low during the night and should I try a dose of 5 units tomorrow instead of 10 and see how it goes? [/QUOTE]
