Type 1 diabetes

ask your doctor to help you…

I read that 15 carbs can raise your sugar by 100 points, so be careful to check with your doctor before guessing.

our insulin to high bs ratio is 50 points per unit. so if we are 100 points over our goal range we get 2 units of insulin more than our usual dose to bring us back into range.

all this should be arranged through or checked by your endocrine doc, we go every 3 months and I also have email and emergency numbers.

Thanks for caring and sharing,
