Buut everyone was right when they said pricking your finger hurts more.And it was much appreciated that you guys told me that.So lastnight they gave me 2 units for my bedtime one and today they gave me 1 unit with my lunch because my blood sugar was a little high.
The people im working with are amazing and very helpful. |
Those are VERY low doses of insulin, most type 1s take about 50 units a day depending on what they eat (type 2s on insulin take more) from what I read on the forum here. To get good control, your dose will go up, I'm sure.
Good luck on your good start.
