So basically I understand now my insulin requirements are different so I'm on a 2:1 ratio with 1 extra unit. I don't always feel comfortable about injecting too much though. I know it sounds ridiculous but I've always been like that. I'm just struggling to find stuff to eat and also allowing myself to have more than like 9 units at a time. What's the most u had to go on at one time meal wise? Just need the 're assurance i think lol.

Thanks so much! Xxx

I am sorry I cannot help with this question. I went from 8,8,12 and my long acting 24 to 0,2,4 and 10 long acting. Apparently there is something where a T1 can get the opposite of insulin resistance, my husband found something about it in the medical journal. I would still hpyo all day on those amounts, and everytime I hypo'd I would be sick. My team never confirmed why this happened, its rare apparently.

Baby was big for her cooking time and I had 2 weeks extra fluid. She was basically draining all the glucose form me and getting nice and chubby and making extra waste.

Take care xx
