Dear Ginger,

It seems like the amount of insulin I need changes, sometimes just for a day, like around exercise, or sometimes it's like it's changed for a big period of time, and I'm going low a lot. I started trying to eat healthier, and I kept having a ton of lows, so how I do eat better but not crash all the time? Is it normal to have changes so quickly?

Hey Becca!

What you need to do is learn about "titrating" your own insulin dose!

What is “titrating”? Titrating is the medical term used to describe when you’re continuously adjusting and measuring your dosage. When it comes to diabetes, we’re obviously talking about insulin.
