[QUOTE="AJB_81, post: 1698683, member: 395521"] That's good advice! I've found when I over indulge and have something like Fish & Chips or a takeaway, I inject my insulin in 2 stages in about a 60:40 split. Staggered bolus I call it. So for example: 100g Carbs = 10 units NovoRapid, I'd take 6 units at time of eating and 4 units 2 hrs later. Don't see why only pumpers get multi-wave bolus'... not very scientific but I find it works for me. Avoids the hypo cause by the insulin working faster than the food is processed... [/QUOTE]
