[QUOTE="Mr Happy, post: 385504, member: 68897"] I would suggest that micro managing may partly be the problem. Even fast acting insulin will be having an effect a couple of hours later, by injecting again you will be getting a new 'hit' alongside. Effectively you will never have a smooth level. Also, with different sites of injection, different exercise and stresses throughout the day, each shot may impact you differently. I am not being critical by saying this, the desire to want tight control is commendable. All I would say is that its harder for you to map the trends in doing it this way and it may cause more fluctuations. As for feeling down, all I can offer you is hope. People do not understand that it can be a daily struggle and you're only a couple of units or a bit of food away from discomfort. However, don't ever think it is beating you! Every injection, bit of food you enjoy, day in the sunshine etc is a day of sticking two fingers up at your pancreas!
