I have a bit of a dilemma, regarding rice cakes! The label says that 2 rice cakes would equal 1cp. I generally only eat 1 at a time, so don't inject qa insulin. However, every time I eat one, my bg levels do go up! |

Thanks, Phil. Maybe I'll try injecting next time. |

they say you can avoid injecting for 1CP or less but its not mandatory.......it purely for convenience....... |

It goes up about 2/3, so 1u would probably sort it out. I just don't like injecting when unnecessary, as I seem to be mega sensitive to it. |

also depends on when you want to have the snack, you could account for it before or after in meal time doses...... |
