[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2283482, member: 68789"] Hi [USER=505061]@Diabeticger[/USER], I hope you’ve been able to contact your nurse/doctor/consultant now and arrange a telephone consultation. We’re all different, and everyone’s needs vary. If you’re feeling hungry then the sooner you talk with them the better. A number of us have been talking about your need to inject for eggs, but it seems you don’t have any carb for breakfast. There’s another reason too that may explain why you need the insulin in the morning: the simyogi effect when the liver pumps glucose into the bloodstream to give a boost of energy to start the day. For some people it happens at a set time in the early hours, and for some it happens as soon as they begin moving in the morning. If we get this, but don’t make the insulin ourselves that’s needed to get the glucose into the cells then we need to inject some. A lot of us need to inject a bit of insulin to cover it as well as what we need for any carbs at breakfast. The amount, and timing of insulin for the simyogi, or foot on the floor, varies for each of us. Not everyone has this, but as I said, we’re all different. [/QUOTE]
