Thomas requires more insulin. He usually needs 1u to bring him down 50. Most of the time this works and then for some unknown reason this will bring him down too low.[/QUOTE]

The normal bolus correction ratio seems to be 1:50/2.7: 1 unit drops B/G 50/2.7 points at 1 hour.

That can be mitiagted by all kinds of factors: exercise, lack of exercise, BMs, psychological state, hormones, so even when you find "The Perfect" correction bolus, you still have to keep a close eye on it.
