erm, 9 at 9am...was 5.7 before bed at 11.30...I had quite a big meal last night (LCHF of course) and also ate lunch yesterday, which I don't normally do these days (was feeling the hunger yesterday). I also dropped my tresiba by 2u, as I've been a touch on the low side each morning (LOL), so 9 if what I get :arghh:

It's gonna be messy. I missed my Lantus dose by almost 4 hours and I was already above 12 before I settled into bed with a correction dose.

I wish I could just use "1 unit = drops 2 mmol" as a rule of thumb, but the fact that it can be 2 OR 3 makes me unsure of what I should do for correction doses since that's a pretty big difference.

e: as of this morning, back to 7.8
