[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2117736, member: 503481"] According to libre view, I’m around 140g or less. Novorapid was too slow for carby meals such as takeouts and rice and noodles and high blood readings, it seems okay for things like beans and lentils and absolute nightmare for sweets and biscuits. But still takes too long :( Fiasp was better for those but too hardcore for my partial routine of iced coffee, yogurt and berries, chick peas and salad. I felt 0.5 with fiasp is too much. I was prescribed fiasp because I told my consultant that I waited 40-45 mins for my blood sugar to come down and eat. Of course if my blood sugar was between 7-9, fiasp and low carb isn’t too bad. But for the lower end 4-6 I might need to add around 10g of carb so I don’t drop like a plank. I’m curious to know if slow acting insulin such as humulin S or actrapid is better for low carbers, particularly those who eat 50-100g a day and if they just save fast acting for corrections.
