[QUOTE="jopar, post: 145704, member: 11712"] Trez If you are hypoing at similar time of day, look at either you carb content of your previous meal or your previous dose, Looking at when you are going hypo, afternoon's and you'll of a pre-mixed regieme, then either your lunch carb intake is out or you are missing a snack of carbs in the afteroon.. I am surprised that you are on a pre-mixed regieme, as at 27 years old you can't have or want the regimented lifestyle that this type of regime requires to get it to work effectively... Every day, same meal and snack times, indentical carbs allowence for each meal (i.e breakfast 30g, sanck 20g etc) I would have a chat with your diabetic team, ask about MDI where you use two seperate insulin, a background and a quick acting insulin, combine this with carb counting, so you can adjust your insulin dose quick to suit your choosen meal or snack with any exercise taken into consideration, once your background insulin is set correctly then you can alter times of meals, and even miss one if you'll feel like.. A much more flexible regime for an active diabetic.. [/QUOTE]
