I believe some T1's have to account for protein when calculating how much insulin to use. @SimonP78 I see you have liked @KennyA 's post. Have I got that right? @Mark Rawlinson is a T2 on insulin.I don't have a problem with walnuts, hazel nuts, pecans, almonds or brazil nuts. Cashews aren't true nuts and are pretty high in carb.

If you see a consistent rise from them, you could work out how to dose with your trurapi.I am not talking about salted peanuts but mixad nuts, almonds brazil, Hazel walnuts etc
I was gived a few packets as a Birthday treat and since I had some ( a handful or so) I find my BS is raising
I thought they were a good alternative too
Thank you for now I don't want to change the units as am only using 4u trurapi will see what nurse says today at my app't. If my sugar has been high I have odd time gone to 5 units hope se is not on here :/If you see a consistent rise from them, you could work out how to dose with your trurapi.
Personally, if I have nuts earlier in the day I need to inject for them, in the evening I don't. But this may be completely different for you.
I let my meter guide me, if a food raises my bg I inject for it next time.
how did your appt go?will see what nurse says today at my app't. If my sugar has been high I have odd time gone to 5 units hope se is not on here :/
something must be right as mt Hba1c has gone from 129 to now 61 over 6 months
Also remember these nuts are an occasional treat not staple part of my diet
She was very pleased withhow did your appt go?gj with hba1c reduction.
Ask yourself why you test, and how you use the information that testing gives you.I did forget to ask if I need to test as aften instead of 8 times a day
i still think should push for cgmAsk yourself why you test, and how you use the information that testing gives you.
Test before driving of course for safety around hypos, test when you feel like you may be having a hypo is a given.
But do you use the testing around food to adjust your insulin doses, or would you like to?
I forgoti still think should push for cgmforgot to ask if @Mark Rawlinson asked about it at his appt.
If it is high then I go from 4 to 5u if it is badly high then 6uAsk yourself why you test, and how you use the information that testing gives you.
