Thanks Sue. My DSN/practice nurse hadn't heard of it but tbh at my surgery they need to get a bit more up to date.

In 48 years of diabetes I have never followed up with slow acting carbs. 🙂
 
Neither have I..........

DAFNE has changed since my graduation in 2009, but I believe there advice was to follow up with a slow acting 10/15g if there was more than an hour to the next meal.....
 
Yes NRB that was standard advice until recently.
 
Depends really, if novorapid hasn't reached its peak and its within 2 hours of injecting then follow up carbs was advised by dsn, outside of this then its just a couple of jelly baby's.
