Hi all, thank you for all your replies. I would like to say today has been a better day but it really hasn't! Last week I kept having hypos so reduced my fast acting which worked for a few days and have now been experiencing highs so have been taking correction doses and tweaking my fast acting and still sitting high hopefully tomorrow will be a better day
i have just had my phone consultation yesterday was told to change my teatime ratio from 1-10 to 1-12 as i crash around 4pm onwards my basal is fine so will see how that works for me and was also told to even try 1-15 if still dropping xx

As others have said the temperature really seems to effect my bloods.
Especially the cold, yesterday I for lunch had 2 pitta breads and a pear and gave 7units of insulin.
Took kids to park for a few hours came home took bloods and was 21.5!!!
Needed almost same correction dose to get my bloods down.

I am trying another pen as of tonight so I'm hoping it is a pen issue as I've massively increased my insulin doses pretty much doubled it and I'm still high, im otherwise okay and nothing to explain the highs so fingers crossed it does the job
