[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 829727, member: 102150"] I can't make sense of your correction ratio of 1u:3mmol Did you really take 8u corrective at 8am? Surely you should have only taken about 6u with a BG of around 24? If your correction ratio is definitely 1:3 and you took 8u, that would push your BG down to (theoretically) zero four hours later and you would go hypo after 2-3 hours. Even if your day basal is too low and even if your carb ratio is too low (we don't know either yet) you would still go hypo. If that was a calculation error, is it possible your hypos are being caused by calculation errors? [/QUOTE]
