| Best way to achieve all of this is to write it down, write down all your morning bgs for the last week and look for patterns, note the days you skipped breakfast and/or lunch and start adjusting Lantus dose in 1unit increments. Your best bet in tackling meals is to write down the amount of carbs you had, the amount of insulin, bg pre-meal and 2-2:30 hours after the meal. You can download the meter readings to your computer using a data cable and blood glucose monitoring software if it makes it easier, which you can get from the company that supplied your meter. It gets much easier once you have your basal and bolus set, you will feel better and can then afford to relax a bit, until your requirements change again happens every once in a while due to activity levels etc. |
