[QUOTE="JustLucky, post: 2654511, member: 540383"] Thanks for the info, I stick Humalog 45mins before breakfast and eat less carbs than for other meals (2 insulin units less). As for the lunch and dinner I aim to stick Humalog 15mins before except when eating meat with carbs I inject later, maybe just before a meal, as I get a hypo or 5mmol and a spike 4 hours later. I don't eat meat much. I prefer eating meat (or fish) with just green veggies, maybe mushrooms and salad. As a low carb meal without any bolus. I actually have a stash of Humalog, maybe 15-20 pens. I feel good about having a few years amount of insulin in the fridge... Call me paranoid, but I feel better this way. So I'll use it anyway, as I won't be trashing it surely. As for the stinging, Humalog stings (burns) sometimes too, I don't like it obviously but I manage. Maybe I could try to stick Lyumjev just before lunch instead of 15min earlier? [/QUOTE]
