It has often been discussed in the forum on the difficulty in calculating the insulin units necessary for type 1 diabetics, and certainly, it is not easy, and it is not an exact science, the number of factors on which it depends makes itcomplicated hitting.
To illustrate this complexity, and also to facilitate the understanding of how many factors affect, a calculation algorithm has been developed that illustrates this problem quite well, here I leave it, at first it costs to follow, but if you spend a little time,You end up square.;-)

But why do regular insulin want, 30 minutes before meals, if there are already rapids? Nothing, the glucometer and that each one is fixed, because every day it will be different, do what you do ...

If the schemes that Maria de Social and Natural brings me already scare me !!!!I don't even tell you this !!!There if one day I can get to understand it ..... it would be a sign that I know and I understand something more of diabetes ..... because today it seems that he knows less and less on the subject ...

Ufff!As they have not taught me anything when I have to correct and that dose. All this is very big and I am almost depressing I will not be able to with this. Anyway thanks @fer
We are in the same situation, @aliciaalicia.I had read the rule of 1800?, which is a much more simple operation.Although with this I suppose it will be more wrong.
And @aliciaalicia a recommendation, do not get over!It is all the good that can be had, and as you will see in my signature, so far, without complications.;)

They probably have not taught you because it cannot be taught, as the saying goes "every master has its bookHow do you see that you are working with the most convenient doses for you. Much encouragement and above all patience !!
