Was prescribed steroids yesterday for my asthma
Not long term I hope still I take 15mg a day and still have managed to reduce BG levels eventually by good carb control so it is possible over time despite the steroids.

My FBG this morning 5.0

Insulin
9.9

Can't get the first reading down whatever i do. It's 5.5 now at 7pm. Something weird happens overnight and i can't put my finger on it. I'm wary of increasing my night dose, in case i'm going too low during the night and rebounding. Often my insulin seems to go in a bump under my skin, not convinced it's working properly or late or what it's actually doing.
