Hi,
So this time last week i was told i was actually type 1 instead of type 2 (which i was told i was 9 months ago and have been having medication for type 2). Anywho, After all the confusion of what type i am and changing of medication, I have started using Humulin KwikPen, i take 14 units of a night time just before bed and 10 units after my breakfast ( Also take 1000mg of Metformin with my dinner) Now i find that my bloods are sky high before bed, I eat healthy and less than i used to ive also cut out fatty foods and any sort of fizzy drinks basically gone cold turkey. I try to walk most nights or do some sort of exercise to lower them. but still feel like im not doing something right.
Now I have a few questions.
Does anyone have any tips on other ways to lower the blood sugars?
I've had my first ever Low while being diabetic. What do you recommend eating/drinking to get the sugars back up but not to high?
Treats that aren't Terrible for your BS?
Any other advice that youve learn over the time?
Thanks
A very new and confused type one
