[QUOTE="himtoo, post: 1154816, member: 142835"] Hi Sam welcome to the forum :) you have a lot to take on board at first -- some practical suggestions 1/2 unit pen to help with high insulin to carb ratios 1u:12 carb , 1u:15 carb , 1u : 20 carb etc etc stick to a routine eating the exact same things at meals to help learn what an insulin dose does to your body lots of testing at 1 , 2 , 3 , hour post meal to double check your insulin dose other than that -- cut yourself some slack -- this lasts a long time so getting into a routine helps and realising that it does not go perfectly every day no matter how hard you try ( 43 years here :D ) keep posting Sam !!!!!!! all the best ! :) [/QUOTE]
