Hello Paul , Diabetes is all about balance and I would increase the insulin and eat some carbs, Good carbs!!
Once that you have that balance you will gain weight.

I also need help with insulin. I understand I need to take it when I wake up and when I eat but I don't understand the amount I should take and why?

Take up insulin slowly and have a test before you eat and have that fast acting insulin and then eat and have another test 2 hours after your first bite. I test quite alot as for us type 1's we look at testing seriously!!!

I do not have a doctor that has been with me since day one so when I see a doctor its like they know nothing about me.

I would see an endocrinologist as they would know far more than a general doctor would know.
