3.7 :eek:...after another reduction of slow acting insulin last night! I think it is time to see what happens if I don't take any short acting insulin at all after low carb breakkie...:nailbiting:
4.8 and that was after midnight snack or it would have been too low this morning. Yesterday's 'trial' didn't turn out quite satisfactory..bloods stayed just under eight until mid-day until I took more insulin to adjust it.
So...I'll be adjusting long lasting insulin again little lower again tonight..:)

Too many to list
Definitely on v.v. low carbs, started introducing >20g carbs at each meal, bloods went up from 5.1 to 7.1 so going back to no more than 15g carbs each meal see how that goes! (Even using wholemeal everything, brown rice 1/2 cup cooked made blood sugars rise, to point of bad foot pains again).
How do you stay full then? I mean there are only so much of vegetables & fruits that one can eat in a day..
