Hello i am 27 years old male , recently got diagnosed with t1d my hba1c was 11.4 .
Doctor prescribed me 3 shots of novorapid 6 units each before meals and 10 units trebisa at night . I just started taking insulin 2 days back but from yesterday after taking 1st shot of insulin in the morning before breakfast my BG was normal the whole day , the readings were like
Fasting BG - 138
Took 6 units of insulin
BG before lunch - 92
BG before dinner - 83
And today this morning after 3 kms running my fasting BG is 90
So I am confused if I take insulin as prescribed by my endo or can i skip it if my bg is normal ???

Are you sure that you are a type I diabetic?If yes then probably you need to take medication on the regular basis.Ask your doctor to decide doses of insulin as per your conditions.
Diet has key role in diabetes management.Also physical exercises are good for diabetes as well as overall health.
Wait for more replies from knowledgeable people in the forum.
In order to enhance your knowledge about diabetes management read old post related to type I and on the other topics.
Yes I am sure its type1 , my endo confirmed me that plus i exercise a lot and i run around 1.5 miles daily in the morning and 45 minutes walk at night.
And above all I'm following a strict diet chart also taking fenugreek seeds .
Ayurveda has reduced itself to quackery. I have known many diabetics who have tried Ayurveda "doctors" and failed. Consulting a good endo, a strict schedule of diet control, medication and exercise including yoga, offer a tried and tested way out. Diabetes is not curable, but manageable.
I am sorry to say my endo failed miserably ......and most of diabetic here are here due to same.... they followed advise given by those doctors...and could not control sugar levels in spit of ever increasing medicines and complications....
