[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 960914, member: 21149"] Hi. I've never heard of the 500 rule. Normally you adjust your Bolus to the amount of insulin you are having at a meal. It will vary from person to person. My DN in common with general advice started me at a ratio of 1 unit of Bolus to 10gm carb, but it needs to be varied from from person to person. If in doubt seek advice from the DN and start with a lower amount of insulin, using the meter a lot and finding the right ratio for you. [/QUOTE]
