i have 16 units of levimir in the morning, and 20 at night. and i have 'novorapid (fast acting) during the day when needed.
another reason my BSL is high is because i dont like having insulin at school, i feel intimidated, but i just go to the toilet and do it and stuff everynow and then.
im stoked i finnally can talk too other type 1 people from aus, haha! |
Whoa, I'm guessing you don't count carbs then??
I just had a decent (ok, huge) slice of leftover birthday cake, but I know that I took the right amount of insulin for it... you can eat virtually anything you want without too much worry if you are counting your carbs right...
As for avoiding taking your shots at school... are you using a novopen? Its nice and subtle... I used to carry mine in my pocket or pencil case, and just shoot through my school dress or shirt... People will barely notice, and you will feel a million times better when you have some better control!!!
