So far, I'm doing well. And from what I have read, so are you.

Hope you get to your goal.
I have been below 95 with 83 units of insulin taken in the morning.
But the last several weeks I have been on 84 and 85 units of insulin.
I am being closely monitored by a Dr. from India who is in training
to get licensed in U.S. I e-mailed him this morning with over 95
units the last three days. I imagine he will increase my dosage to
86 units .

I don't understand these higher readings. My diet has not changed
from the low readings taken at 83 units.
For two nights I had Lean Cuisines and last night I had a baked
drumstick and 3/4 cup mashed potatoes. That is what I would eat
at 83 units. The Dr. requests that I send him the readings every
third day. A real mystery!

Have a great day!
