Snacks

Ive just completed Dafne and Im still trying to get my head round all the rules! Im a bit confused about snacks. If for example I have a 3CP Snack at 3pm then have my evening meal at 6pm would I take a correction dose if my BG was high before my meal? As the QA from my snack would still be working I didnt know whether too or not. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Hi Carbtastic................................ If you have a snack of more than 1CP an hour of less before your next meal then either take the insulin at the time of snack or with your meal, however if your snack is eaten more than 1 hour before your next meal take the insulin at the time of the snack. Don't have any corrections at meal time if your BG is elevated as the insulinn you had at the time of the snack will account for it. I know it's confusing but it will sink in, I promise.
