So does that mean you are taking less insulin with a higher blood glucose?

Sorry confused......... Question

No I opted for 3 as the CP value of my vegan lasagne so I added .5 for the borderline BG and I'll test again in an hour or so and see where I am at.

Ahh, I though you decided on 4CP for the lasagne.................so with your ratio of 1.5:1 you would be taking 6 units of insulin.....

Your method of correction is news to me also, would you not just add 1 unit onto your carb dose of 6, or if you decided on 3CPs, 5 units.......

Sorry to confuse you as you would not know I tend to round up in cases where the value comes out by half. So I did indeed take 6 my BG is at 6.9
