Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 3.2 is way too low. Iwould recommend eating four or six of those crackers with cheese and dosing Lantus as you are directed by your physician. . You are telling me you only wish to consume only 4 grams of carbs, which raises your bs almost 2 mole points, and you are already in the danger zone with an extreme low bs. It makes no sense to me for you to do what you say you are going to do, but I am sure this will make 's doctor thrilled. If you do what you say you are going to do, I predict a rebound effect, and 's doctor will say you probably need to increase your Lantus dose. I urge you to take my advice and not that doctor's advice. Fortunately, the chkoice is yours. Do as you please. Let us know how it turns out.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Just a suggestion for , maybe you will need to, either consume more carbohydrates at your meal or look at decreasing your Humalog. At the meal your main source of carbohydrate was from the slice of French Toast, the carbohydrate in the spinach and meat pattie were probably minimal. If you had added some vegetables such as carrot, peas, corn or whatever is your preferred vegetable it would sustain you more and maybe also accompany it with a 1/2 cup of potato or pasta or rice to help sustain your level. If the bread was a slice of white bread it would rise your level more rapidly and then drop off so it would not be giving a more slower increase in your level and sustain your blood sugar. Also try having some fruit or yoghurt. However I don't know what your food likes and dislikes are so I could be suggesting foods that you don't enjoy eating. from down under Re: Regulating 's > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> blood > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> sugar > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> : > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This is none of my business, but I am very curious > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> how > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> you > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> are > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> currently > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> calculating the amount of humalog that you are taking > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> with > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> your > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> meal. > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> assume that you have a target blood sugar reading, > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> let > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> us > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> say > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 100 - > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> which > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> would be 5.5 under your system.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I remember you took the glucose tablet, but you were also talking about eating a soda cracker. So I still wonder just how many grams of carbs you did consume. A watermelon tablet is 4 grams of carbs. Did you add to that figure with a soda cracker or two or three?

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Humalog 3 to 18 carb grams is a 1:6 ratio. This sounds pretty close to being the correct ratio for you. Now let's see how that bs of 4.4 is affected. Will it go up or will it go down next time it is taken. If it varies a small amount one way or another, then you are in the right range with this ratio. Only blood sugar testing will tell.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Evidently, a 1:6 causes your bs to rise. Maybe you should try a 1:5 ratio. Humalog 4 to 18 carb grams is a 1:4.5 ratio.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Let's see here: one 4 gram watermelon tablet plus two soda crackers at 2 grams each for a total of 4 grams of carbs. So, you are telling me that you took a total of 8 grams of carbs at bedtime when you dosed that Lantus 8 units. This would raise that bs 3.2 reading to approximately 7.0 moles, since four grams of carbs raises your bs around 1.9 moles. So 8 grams of carbs is twice that which would be 3.8 moles. Add this figure to 3.2 moles and you get a grand total of 7.0 moles, which is where you wish to be when you dose lantus at night. As you may recall this is the reason you did not have a rebound effect the next day and your morning fasting bs was 4.4, which is an excellent reading. I would strongly suggest you continue dosing Lantus at this bedtime level. It appears that dosing Lantus 8 units at bedtime reduces your bs level around 2.6 points during the night. I believe it will prevent you from having that rebound effect and you will also wake up with your bs in the normal range. Congratulations and keep up the good effort.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 I pretty much split the difference in total carb grams consumed at 28. With Humalog 6 this would be a ratio of 1:4.7.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 You are making excellent improvements, and I commend you on the effort you are making and the results you are achieving. Once you know your U factor, you will have greater control regarding your bs measurements. Simply put the U factor is the average number of points drop in your bs caused by one unit of Humalog. Suppose you have a bs of 9.0 and you wish to be a 5.5. If you know your U factor, you would know exactly how many units of Humalog to bring down that 9.0 reading to a 5.5 reading. It is not magic. It is simple mathematics.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Being close to 5.0 moles for a target bs is an excellent goal. While I aim for 90USA, which is a mole of 5.0, my overall average is 5.3, which is 95 USA. I predict a fasting bs for you in the morning of 4.9-5.4, and you will have no rebound effect. This is based on your last reported bs level 2.3 and the watermelon tablet you took plus those 4 crackers for a total of 12 carb grams and dose of Lantus 8u. Good night. I will see what you report in the morning.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 That pre-breakfast of 2.9 is in the low range. I would recommend decreasing your Lantus at night by 1 unit. So decrease the dose from 8 units to 7 units. At least you did not have that dreaded rebound effect. I think you got pretty close to triggering it. Humalog 3 to 30 carb grams is a 1:10 ratio and it raised your bs from 2.9 to 12.1, which is a 9.2 raise in your bs. Humalog 7 and 17 carb grams is a 1:2.5 ratio. Your bs is sure to rise, but how much? Now if that nurse comes to draw up your Lantus dose, show her this message and tell her to call the doctor and get a verbal order to decrease the Lantus dose from 8 units to 7 units. Tell her you are requesting that this be done on the advice of an authority expert and your private wishes. If you were responsible for drawing up your own Lantus, then you could just do it on your own authority. The dose can always be increased at a later date, but presently you are running extremely low fasting glucose levels near the danger point. You are the boss. It is your body, so you decide.
