Message: <blockquote data-quote="FindingNemo" data-source="post: 231687" data-attributes="member: 13021">My 9 yr old has just taken 5 units of act rapid, instead of his levemir.  His bm was 8.5, which is average for bedtime and at this level still needs a bedtime snack.  His sensitivity ration is 1u:3mmol, which means 5 units should bring his bm down by 15mmol, which is obviously disasterous.For dinner we had a 'picnic', as had roast at lunch today.  So he had chiken, salad, ryvita and some bread with a small mousse pudding.Since the insulin mistake he has had some fruit juice, a PBJ toasty, some yohurt with banana and biscuits and 1/2 glass lucozade.  We are going to test him hourly through the night, unless there is a big drop, when we will test more regularly.We have stock of glucogel and glucagon so are ready for emergency, anything else we should do?</blockquote>
