I take 10iu insulin with 40g of carbs and don't go hypo...

Does this mean that I have low insulin sensitivity? Is it safe to take in only that many carbs post workout while taking slin, even though I don't feel hypo symptoms? I also have another 30-40g of carbs about an hour later in my PPWO meal.

i take around 5 or 6 grams per iu so your even lower at 4 grams of carbs per iu. if you dont feel any symptoms then i would stay at 4 ius bro. do you take protein as well?

how long have you been using it and how hard are you working out is going to determine to a certain extent what you need. Just have extra on hand be safe.

That's totally normal. Some people are less sensitive than others.

Like said above, sometimes people are not as sensitive to insulin as others. Also, it depends on what type of carbohydrate you are taking in. I find that I can take much less waxy maize than maltodextrin/dextrose combo, and not go hypo.

There is also the slight possibility that your vial of Slin is not potent...it does happen. I have had vials of Novalog that have not been nearly as potent as others. And yes, I get them from pharmacy. This is why I always open a new vial for every cycle now.

get off of the insuline and go to the doctor to get your insuline checked!
