When To Take Daytime Insulin

6 Replies

My hba1c is 9.5. I take 50 units insulin in the day and 60 units at bedtime.

What do you recommend when I take the 50 insulin units?

My diet is not in accordance with diabetes recommendations.

I walk between 1/4 to 1/2 mile three or four times per week.

Sincerely,

Tom Knox

As of 10/04/2015 my Hba1c level is 9.5

Anup is right. Please start LCHF diet. You can achieve normal rage. I was diagnosed before 40 day ago with Hba1c 11.7 . My doctor started with insulin (morning 15U ,Evening 10 U) and medicine. 25 day ago i started LCHF and doctor closed insulin within week. Now my BG is under control. I am monitoring my BS since last 35 days(tested more then 90 time).
