[QUOTE="Key_master_, post: 1613919, member: 381523"] Hi [USER=53162]@Juicyj[/USER] its the fact and the hassle of splitting my bolus, I’ve been doing this since August and if the timing is off then it’s undoing all the good work the low carb diets does for us. in the evening it’s getting close to bed and at 8 to 830 adding more insulin is not a position I want to be in i go to sleep, sitting there with around 5 is fine then but with insulin on board still it’s risky, so depending on injection site and amount could still be active. With actrapid it should just be one injection 45 minutes prior to my meal. I don’t want to use a pump, I’ve heard dr Bernstein view on them and that is good enough for me. I won’t go into it too much, put scar tissue is one of the issues and having something like connected all the time isn’t for me. I’m old Skool and would rather do my 4/5 injections. ATM it’s around 8 with splitting. My dads passing has had a major impact, I was very active before, 15000 + steps a day easily, 2 x 2.5 mike bike a day to get to his. Plus pushing him around the hospital where he worked 3 times a week. The sadness and upset also mixed with the stress of being without my dad and loosing my job and income at the same time has made my blood sugars go crazy at times. The frustration knowing that I need a longer profile on my insulin is another factor. Thanks for your advice and kind words. [/QUOTE]
