[QUOTE="Kash2001, post: 69184, member: 17852"] Hi Dido Couple of thoughts on this, my system of insulin is similar to yours although my quantities are larger, however, I have found that on this system you can get store ups of insulin in the body which can for no reason release into the body, giving a massive hypo. I train most days and my fat content is relatively low, so I think the insulin is going more into muscle than fat areas, it is worth regularly changing the injection sites in a rota, I only do legs for Nova rapid and the levemir in the backside, I will not inject into stomach areas due to my job, so looking at this area may be worth while. as said Lucozade or one of the small cans of coke, are as good as the Glucogel and taste better too. We are all different and there are many reason why we get lows, checking sugar levels after training is no good for me as mine go way up but come down V quick. so you need to understand how exercise affects your sugar levels and administer insulin according to your requirements. But do watch out for the storage of insulin in one area as the body will become resistant to the absorption of insulin and the you can, large amounts suddenly hit your system, 1.2 - 1.4 can happen to me even with me noticing the effect of them as I'm getting Hypo unaware. So watch out for this long term. ATB [/QUOTE]
