Hello good evening.

My name is Chris and I am aware of my mother, 44 -year -old diabetic woman.In the morning I inject 40 units and at night I inject 25 units.

But today, due to issues of concentration and stress, I injected 40 intermediate action insulin units (the only one that consumes) instead of 25 units.

He left after eating a little and told me that he felt bad, dizzy and cold.So they bought food and felt better as in 10 minutes.

The question I have is ...

Tomorrow I must inject it normal?Should we follow the daily routine with respect to your insulin?
Should you consume more carbohydrates for your glucose to level?

I would appreciate your opinions.

You have to follow the guidelines that doctors have marked you and above all and most importantly, measure blood glucose to see if when it is bad it has hypoglycemia or not, sometimes the symptoms do not agree with what really happens in our body.The insulin you are talking about is slow or fast?

The day will have passed, but apart from giving more hydrates, as many as I eat for the day, in the morning would put less units, 10 less?and then at night the normal pattern.
Ask the endo what you have to do if it happened again.
And stick a role with the units of day and night ...
