Hi
have gone fairly low carb since Easter and lost 1 stone . No exercise yet due to foot problem and procrastination. Now on twice as much long acting than short acting (88 Units levemir once a day and about 30-50 novorapid). I was advised initialy to be on about the same dose of bolus to basal insulins. At new year I gained one and half stone when I went of sick. Was using levemir 30+70, and about 80-90 Novorapid. It might have been higher at that time due to my bone infection.
What ratios do people use out there? I suspect going lower carb has that affect.
Last HbA1C 6.0% May 2008. Type 2 on MF as well. Morning BSL 5.0 to 5.9.
