- the confusion about what and what not to eat, provided by others who know it all!
Hi, I'm Susie, just been diagnosed (3wks) with type 1. I have ben put on Humulin M3 combined insulin to be injected twice a day.
I seem to be ok so far, between 5.1 whe I wake and 8.0 in the evening. I am confused though, about carbs???
Some say eat carbs at every meal, which I am doing, pasta, rice, potatoes, granary bread. But I find I'm having to eat a small bowl of cereal before bed.(or I go into a hypo around 2am) I thought I needed to look after my weight not eat all this carb laden food???
anyone on Humulin M3? and have any advice for me?
I am still in the grieving period too, I'm angry, sad, self pityiny, especially no as it's christmas and all I see are adverts for chocolates and sugar rich food!!!
I need othes to talk to and make me feel 'normal'
Cheers! Susie.
