[QUOTE="MrBen, post: 1869369, member: 398167"] I have not taken wrong insulin. But did get a misread when running a marathon - glucose gel on thumb. Said 29. So took 9 units of novorapid. Realised about 8 mins later that it was 3.5. Insulin works better when you run so I had ..... 14 gel shots (20g glucose) 5 bottles lucozade sport, 4 hike bars, 2 pure apple bars - my blood sugar stayed below 4 for 14 of the last 18 miles of the run. Got up to 7 when I finished - 4hr 34min. Next time no mistakes and ran 3 hr 40. [/QUOTE]
