I would like to clarify about my previous post that my advice is based on my knowledge and my experience as type 3 diabetic, which of course is the specialist who must mark the guidelines and monitor the diabetic and that our opinions (almost always wellintentionally and almost always quite successful), they are just personal opinions.
And said that, Nacho, if I arrived in mid -morning with downturn, would anticipate it taking a snack, 1 ration of bread, fruit, some yogurt ... Anyway, it is possible that this situation occurred due to an excess of basalAnd if you have lowered the lantus it is possible that you no longer suffer the descent .... you will have to wait for the basal to be well adjusted and how you say, then adjust the rest.
Greetings.

It happens to me the same, as I don't eat something between hours they give me the descents.So I am every two by three eating.

Even last night, before bedtime, I took a glass of milk with two cookies to get well until I got up, because not that, about six I startled and I started having low, so again I started to eat, II think that is not normal.So I'm getting, I'm taking kilos.

I am also thinking about going down the slow ones, but I don't know if my endocrine will tell me something when I go again in July.

All the best!!

If you do not dare to move the insulin units, go to the endocrine consultation but you should not continue with so many hypoglycemia.I still think that it is incredible that you just diagnosed you for a month and peak later and without giving you some guidelines to follow.The endocrine made me a chop with some guidelines to lower or raise insulin according to glycemia and that I saw me weekly at the beginning, in short ..... I would recommend that you will download a couple of units and see how yougoes.

Good afternoon.

Pearl, do not have an appointment with the diabetes educator?

I do not have endo until the end of July, but this week I have been with the educator.My Lantus descent has approved, and we have established control guidelines.

Here you have explained something, but I follow my educator's recommendations, which are very similar.

Luckily, at night I have no hypos, although I arrive in the morning a bit low.My hypos are usually in mid -morning, especially because breakfast at seven and not about two.I notice them before they arrive, and I usually be in 70, so I take a zumito and some cookies, and with that I arrive at eating around 100.

Breakfast posts are already beginning to be controlled in 150 or so, so we are getting the dose.

My advice: if you do not dare, or do not want to risk moving the doses, go to endo before the appointment, do not risk to continue so low until the end of July.

Hi Nacho,

Three days ago I lowered the lantus, and sometimes, according to what I am going to eat, I put a less than the rapid.I continue with the occasional hiccups, but not so often or so strong.I think I would even have to lower another from the Lantus .... I'll see what I do.

The hypos give me at any time, in the middle of the morning, in the afternoon, even at night I startled and it is because I have it low, and I like some cookie to stay.My levels are usually very low, I have never had any climb, nor exceed 150 at two hours after meals.

I have no appointment with the educator, moreover, I have never had an appointment with her, only with the dietitian, or is it the same?

Thank you very much for the information.

I will tell how the thing is going, I hope you do very well.

All the best.

Dietitian or diabetes educator, I suppose it will be the same.

Put the measurements of the last three days, to see how you are moving.

All the best.

Nacho

Hello,

Well, if it is the same, I had a talk with the dietitian, and then another event with her, but almost did not explain anything.

My glucose measures are:

Breakfast Cena

Day before / after before / after before / after

21 59/75 74/64 79/81

22 88/78 104/152 68 108/105

23 79/73 78/116 100/139

24 66/79 98/95

Let's see what you think.

All the best.

To complete the information it would be necessary to know the exercise you have done (I have given me hypos for scrubbing the house :))), what you have eaten (especially the amounts of carbohydrates) and the insulin units that you have put yourself.

Insulin+food+exercise = glycemia this is the equation

They seem very low, especially those after meals.How long after eating do you measure it?How much do you move, do you exercise?

My goals (I repeat mine, those that the medical team has put me) are:

Before meals between 100-120.And two hours after meals below 180.

I follow a diet of 2200 calories, weight 97 kilos, and I am 37 years old ... that everything influences.

Hello.

I measure me two hours after meals.

My endo has not told me how it would be ideal before meals, but later, below 150.

I am not doing any, and in my work I do not make much effort, sometimes I take some weight, but I do not think it is so much, I am a saleswoman.

I am 30 years old, and I have recovered half of the weight I lost, I am at 58.5 kg, they gave me a diet of 2000 kcal, but I do not follow it to Raja Table, it is a lot of food for me.I also don't want to continue fucking more weight.

At breakfast I take 3 portions of hydrates, in the food of 4-6, and at dinner 3-4, more or less.

What mania have to put diet of 2000 calories in the debut ... if simply with doing one of 1500-1700 in your case you would already recover the weight ... I would understand that diet if you had a great activity and/or had lost a lot of weight

On the other hand, how many fast units do you put on?
Theoretically: 1 Ration Hydrates = 1 Ultra -shaped insulin unit
You still have insulin reserves or you need less insulin by ration

For your glycemia I think you should adjust the ultra -grape

I agree with Owash, you have too much ultra -grape.

What I would do is keep fixed hydrates in a guideline, whatever.

I would take the six glycemia every day.And if for three days you have a short post, go down a UI.

The ideal (as I have read) is to adjust the lantus first, then the breakfast, food and dinner.One in one.

I left the hospital with 8-8-8-28.And with a diet in hydrates (not confusing with "flours") of 7-11-10.

Now I am with a guideline of 5-7-8-18, and I still have to lower it a little, since I still get under almost all meals.

Anyway, always with the control of your endo or your educator.

I have just agreed with this.

The adjustment of the Lantus must be independent of the ultra -grape ... It is normal to adjust the ultra -grape to the rations of carbohydrates that are eaten ... At first we have all followed to the letter the indications of our endo and/o Educator but as time passes you learn and dominate the diet by rations the freedom to eat what you want is complete.
After time you do not usually eat the same every day (I mean number of hydrates rations)

To modify the pattern in the Lantus you have to see the evolution of several days (minimum 3-4) and observe what happens between meals;Example: Breakfast post (2 hours later, about 11) is 150 --- and glycemia before the food of 150 (without eating anything or exercising) = It is obvious that is missing basal insulin
The easiest is usually to see it between the post of dinner and breakfast pre post ... we eliminate both exercise and food (except for dawn and resopone)

I am already adjusting my fast dose according to what I eat, especially when I left home.

At home I always try to eat the same rations of hydrates, and respect the diet to Rajataba.

Both types of insulin act in the body, and their adjustments do not think they can be "independent" since they are relative with each other.

I suppose that after time the effect of the rapIt is convenient to first adjust the effect of the Lantus, and then adjust the fast doses.In addition, it does not make the same effect on breakfast, as on food or dinner.Since our physical activity is Disntinta, and our metabolism as well.

I detect variations from the weekend to working days.Anyway, it is difficult to reach the right balance.I guess it's a matter of time.

Greetings.

PS: I like to discuss this, forums are a great invention.

Nacho, the Lantus looks good at 24 hours.My daughter came very well to put her in the morning.When he put it at night, he had to lower the dose because he produced nocturnal hypos and then did not last more than 18 hours.Lantus schedule can vary, until you find the best for each one.
