I've never had those Insulins and I don't have DP.
Before I left home I've mostly tinkered with my doses 'til
I'm Happy with the result also.
I was put on a high dose of Prednisone for RA last March which
was awful. I finally sacrificed having more pain with less Pred.
and taking less Insulin. So I weaned myself down from 30 mg.
to 10 mg. A lot of tinkering that was. Then I have the Pred.
eye drops after my cataract surgery in Sept. and for the next
4 wks. I don't find them bad though as far as raising my sugar.
I usually take:
10 units (Humulin L) and 7 units (Humalog) when I get up.
4 units (Humalog) - 5 hrs. later and 7 units (Humulin) 7 hrs. later
and 5 units Humulin 6 hrs. later.
33 tdd---5 injections. I also eat 4-6 small meals a day.
I'm on Humalog and Humulin L (my last bottle I'm sad to say).
My fbs are usually between:
4.0 and 6.4 .They automatically start rising without eating or
drinking anything by 40 minutes. I like to be around 7.5 when
I go to sleep.
My last A1c was 6.6 which my Dr. and I are Happy with since
I've been stable.
I don't know about the food where you live but the Chinese Food
where we eat I find some of it is quite sweet. We only eat it once
a month.
Whether you are having a Baby or not you should still test often "until"
you are sure of what effect the food, Insulin, exercise, etc. has on
your body and that you are at the right doseage for you.
I usually
test 6 times a day.
Good Luck.
