I am still very new to Type One and I have a couple questions. Before meals I am taking Rapid but I know how many units you take depends on your carb intake. But what if I have a meal thats really low carb? Do i just take a minimal amount or any at all? I am trying really hard to change my diet but I also want to avoid low BS. Are carbs a necessity at every meal? Thanks for anyone who can help.
Also, I am finding that now (this is about my 5th week taking insulin) that I seem to not need half as much as i did in the beginning and I am getting a lot of lows. Is it normal to have to cut back after the beginning? (this is regardless of having a lot of carbs with my meal or not)
Thanks Again
