Your diabetes specialist nurse likely has a lot of experience with patients who struggle with this, it's very common. They may well be able to give you some handles, and maybe even speed up help for you. Remember, they can't help you if you don't tell them what the problem is!If you need 20 units for a meal and it works, there's nothing bad about it.If it doesn't work, you and your diabetes nurse have to work out what your ratios are, they can vary a lot depending on time of day.I'm not sure what 'hospital size portions' are, but if you take insulin to your ratio and those portions leave you hungry, you can always eat more fats and protein, even if you don't want to up the carbs.</blockquote>
