Hi ,

I'm so sorry for the struggles you are dealing with. To get an answer to

your question, it would be best to call the doctor's office and ask them to

check her charts. Each person is quite different in their insulin needs and

there are also quite a few different types of insulin being used. Each one

has it's own dosing pattern. If you can't reach the doctor, a local

Pharmacist may be able to help you in a pinch. Other than that, the only

other thing that comes to mind id an Urgent Care Center or a Nurses

Hot-line in your area.
