Added with glucose at more than 600 mg/dl, I am 19 years old, type 1 or 2 diabetes?

My name is Marcos I am 19 years ago 4 days ago I was entered with glucose in more than 600, so my doctor has recommended to treat me with insulin.

I still don't know if it's diabetes 1 or 2, and I must say that I am very new to keep my glucose at the right levels.

I get up with glucose in 170/180 and after lunch 120/140.Would you like to know how to handle it better :)?

I am using insulin 70/30, 20 units when I wake up 8 am, 6 units at 12 pm and a last dose of 10 units at 8pm.

I hope to share with you :)

Welcome to the forum!Go reading little by little to learn.

Hello, you are type 1 diabetic, we are the ones who injected insulin.
Controlling it is very difficult, and we all do what we can, there is no correct insulin dose, each one carries one and depends on what you eat and the more or less sedentary life you do.
