25 units isnt really that large of a dose. Talk it over with your Dr but Hammer gave you some really good advice. Give it a try and see if it starts to lower those numbers. You may even want to consider splitting the dose to a.m. and p.m. on a 50/50 ratio.

If he isnt producing much insulin I would ask for a GAD antibody test. See if those little buggers are present. If not, then he may be experiencing Beta Caell Burnout.
