hello doc. I am type-1 DM for 11 years and started intermittent fasting (after eating dinner at 1:00 pm evening i stay up to lunch time the next day i.e. 6:00am) and i make this twice a week. during the fasting time i took 8 units of insulatard ( white) and on the fasting time my BG is stable no hypoglycemia no hyperglycemia. but I am making this by my self with out doctors advice and I sometimes feel like I am making mistake may be is there anything i should to know doc. ? and i am making this to lower my A1c.
8U is very small amount....the risk is very low with that amount.i doubt you are type 1. 8 is very small to be enough for adult unless you have functions pancreas. If your blood sugar is stable ,you are good to go!
