I am having an op with a general anaesthetic, I have to go in for 4pm and they have said don't eat from 12 noon. I take my BI at breakfast and bedtime. Should I reduce my BI, and if so at which injection? Should I test before noon and if low, eat something to bring me up to normal BG and if high, correct with QA? Should I time breakfast for about 8am so that there is 4 hours until 12 and if necessary eat something. My actual op will probably be nearer 5pm. Thanks for any advice. |

Another consideration is also how long you will be out to it. Helen |
