About what you ask, it is best to look at the digestion of carbohydrates etc.That is technically postprandial and I usually leave it at about 2 and a half of a meal.I have Dexcom sensor and that greatly improves the quality of life.If your husband were in his land they would have given him a course and had put the Abbott sensor.Ask it, but if your finances allow a sensor, it greatly improves the daily quality of life.
If after that time of about two and a half hours after a normal meal, it is high of glycemia, of course, you put the corresponding rapid insulin correction.Remember it takes around an hour to make its maximum effect and lasts about two hours.Sometimes there is some residual effect until 3h.That means that after putting a correction, without food (of course), you have to wait about two hours to see how that correction has really worked.Ah, if an insulin correction is put on and occurs to take a walk, eye, the movement multiplies the effectiveness of insulin and can easily give hypoglycemia.That means that before applying a correction you have to think that activity we are going to do later.If I am in 160 and I know I'm going to take a walk, I can't get insulin.The walk will lower glycemia.
Slow or basal insulin has always put it and at the same time.It acts very slowly, it is like a base.It helps that fast needs are more manageable.The test to know if the correct amount is put is: put the basal at the same time, measure blood glucose.Then in the morning before breakfast, measure yourself.If it is more or less with the same glucose, then it is fine.It is recommended to wait three days of errors before changing doses, both slow and fast.That is, if for three consecutive days there is plenty of insulin, then it adjusts, and you write it down.
I ceno about three hours before bedtime and I can't take anything else before bedtime.Except for hypoglycemia.Q always has next to the bed, an apple juice, the Germans like.In case of hiccups, it enters very fast.

Well, the truth is that your information is very, very valuable and you are helping me a lot.We never understood the effort, even in the ambulatory they made a lot of emphasis and I wondered, did you answer why if you do not know if sugar is high?The logical thing would be to recommend eating something before sleeping if it were with very low sugar.Anyway, we will do that test then.They argued by saying that from the time of dinner at 8 to sleep it was many hours without eating.
We will test the correction and also that of the Lantus because until now they have been correcting 26 units, to 22, then 18, then 20 but without explanation, a little random.And they never asked us to take sugar before bedtime to have an idea of how much Lantus needs.

The Lantus will know if it is well regulated looking at fasting glycemia.This insulin is supposed to last 24 hours, but not everyone lasts, it lasted 20 hours.Over time you will see it if it happens.Are you paying the dose of Lantus, does it have many dosons?What blood glucose is up? Before I go to sleep I usually look at her almost always in case I'm going down and eat something or not.If I am below 80 yes.But what works to a diabetic does not work to another.You have or have to try.In diabetes as you have already noticed 2 plus two are not four.

Hello, very kind to answer.They started with 26 of Lantus I imagine for the debut that he had in February 800 that is when we discovered that it was damabetic and almost certain for years without knowing it, then they adjusted one week to 18, another 23, they have been varying.Bajones almost never have, I may hypos 2 since February and for our failures.The problem is that if it is at 80 he shows it, he says that he sees a little whiter and a little dizzy, we do not know if it is normal or not.I guess each body is a world.And take a yogurt before sleeping (according to the hospital and the ambulatory is essential to go to go so many hours without eating) eat it but without clicking a fast unit for example.That is, we asked ourselves and if not as anything because I am 140 from sugar?But they insisted us so much that they put fear in the body but I think that eating something at 12 at night will upload the sugar.And I don't know if sugar can be measured before bedtime, a unit if it is for example to 120 and eat a yogurt and then prick the lantus.Thank you so much

Today I think we would not know if the Lantus really lasts 24 hours because they told us that it is a base that neither goes up or lowers sugar ... I don't know if this is correct.In the hospital he was admitted by an operation and did not injected the lantus, no idea why

The lantus does not usually last 24 hours, and that is why they took out its evolution, the toujeo, which does cover 24 hours, is more stable and, in addition, produces less hypoglycemia due to stability.Request the change as soon as you can ...
As for the base, it is "correct" if the units are adequate.By this I mean that if the appropriate units for him were 20 and injected 22 (for example), then he will lower him (even if he is only a little) for the entire duration of the Lantus (that is, 24 hours. Approx.) Withoutthat is injected insulin, or exercise.On the contrary, if 18, the opposite would happen.To this add that the appropriate units are not fixed, or constant, that is, one week (or day) may need 20 of Lantus, but others may need 22, 18, 16, 24, etc.Many factors influence, I.E.Stress, exercise (in general, walking and sports), diseases, meals, etc.

The Lantus you have to always put it at the same time, it doesn't matter when you go to sleep and it also doesn't matter if it is before or after a meal.If it is 120 and a yogurt is hungry with few HC can be eaten and the next day the results will be seen.It is proof - error, so we learn how our body reacts.I advise you to always eat the same HC in order to better understand what happens.

We have done the first test, they have advised me to do it three days in a row and point.Before going to sleep he measured and left 131 and played the resopon and took a glass of whole milk of 200 injecting a fast unit, later the lantus, always at the same time, and has risen now and on an empty stomach160 And that had a little dinner, so I suppose that the Lantus will have to increase in 2 units of moment?Thank you very much for answering

Last night before sleeping it was 131 and, as I was hungry, it took a glass of 200 milk with a fast and later unit of 20 units and has woken up with 160. I suppose it will have to increase.We will do the same test tonight and so for three days, thank you very much for helping

160 is fine to be diabetic, while it is no more, you can keep that dose.
PS: It is not necessary to make a resopon, it would only be necessary if you have exercised during the day and presuppose that it will go down during the night or if it is low of sugar when it comes to sleep.

The truth is that being at 131 before sleep I expected the same or less when he got up.Thank you

It all depends on the amount of basal put, as I mentioned, and the Resopon, if it is done.

80 The same is too fair.I usually try to leave it with 130 - 160, more or less.If not, take something so that I don't get off too much at night or something quick not to get high.

If you are a little hungry before sleeping and is stable of blood glucose, instead of a glass of milk that are very fast carbohydrates (sometimes I take it semi -stated urgency to raise glycemia and enter 15 m), you can take aLittle cheese.Without abusing because TB fat can affect you.You can also eat some nuts that satiate a lot.The TB sausage could serve but there are sausages that put sugar.I would have to look at its composition.A Serrano TB hamlet is valid.

If Pou Example is 150 when going to sleep without resopone, we are afraid because we are very rookie to inject a fast so as not to leave so high.We have never tried it.It will be a matter of overcoming that fear, do you see absurd if it were 150 for example and you are hungry to put a fast unit before eating for example a pear?

Is that he got used to milk or yogurt, would it be absurd to take it if it is the only thing that notes that he takes away his hunger before a fast unit?And then the lantus.
He tells me that for that for dinner a little more and avoids the answer.

Ah I just agreed.Natural soybean yogurt fills a lot and if it is without flavors it has zero carbohydrates.I take it a lot.And in Spain you have fresh Burgos cheese or other similar ones, without they are better skimmed, and I think they remember that they have very little carbohydrates.You can look at the label.I think they are healthy and interesting options.

If it is 150, it would be perfect to go to sleep without taking anything.If something is taken, the insulin corresponding to it would have to be applied.If a pear for him is a quick, yes, one would have to put a quick.
