Bonnie, it was suggested in another one of your threads that you try switching from the pre-mix, to using two insulins that you mix yourself. (Still keeping you on a 2 shot a day plan). This has many advantages over the pre-mixes. You can have a different mix in the morning than at night (advantageous if your metabolism isn't consistent over the day) you can also add a few units of the short acting insulin if you are eating an abnormally large breakfast or dinner. And if you are running super high before bed you can take a correction shot (I know you don't want more than 2 shots a day, but this is just a worst case scenario correction shot, that you don't HAVE to do every day, just if you need it)
Think about it. It might be something worth suggesting to your doctor.
