[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2119222, member: 503481"] Hello, has your friend been testing for ketones? If ketones are present, he needs to go to the hospital asap. For your friend to lower levels gradually, is to test his blood sugars more frequently, learning how to do basic carb count - either he needs to speak to his dietitian or ask for a carb counting course like DAFNE. Carbs and cals book or app would be a good start and kitchen food scales. Bertie online course is a good start too - [URL]https://www.bertieonline.org.uk[/URL] He would obviously feel symptoms of hypo because his body isn’t use to lower numbers but he does need to lower his numbers. Ideally type 1s should be between 6-9mmol/l but that isn’t gradual for your friend. [/QUOTE]
