[QUOTE="himtoo, post: 888038, member: 142835"] hi mymate welcome to the forum :) the reason for the amount of insulin you take will be partly because of insulin resistance -- commonly found in people with type 2. your nurse will most likely be working from the textbooks that suggest the split of longer acting and shorter acting is a 50/50 split or 60/40. with the numbers you provided your split is 10% long acting and 90% short acting. In my humble opinion if what you were doing was working for you and you achieved a 44 on your HbA1c i would be inclined to seek further advice from a different medical professional. all the best [/QUOTE]
