Hi @crikeydee

Welcome to the forums.

Unfortunately we cannot advise on doasge as it's against forum policy - things can easily go wrong with insulin.

Didn't your doctor or diabetes nurse give you any advice at all?

I feel like you should contact your GP or other professional first. What advice were you given when they first put you on insulin?

EDIT: I wrote this before I saw Urban racers post, hence the repetition!
