While I agree it&#x27;s worth being cautious about how you phrase any &quot;advice&quot;, I think the parent post was perfectly reasonable. There was something that worked well for someone he knew, and he mentioned it in case it might help.<p>For context, I&#x27;ve been a Type 1 diabetic since around &#x27;85 and, as I get older, I&#x27;m becoming more insulin resistant (Type 2) also. While I&#x27;ve been able to keep my blood sugar mostly under control, I test my blood 4-10 times a day and sometimes need to take insulin 5+ times in a single day (sometimes it just doesn&#x27;t &quot;work&quot; and I need to take more in smaller amounts to bring my blood sugar down. I can&#x27;t just retake the original amount in case the first shot suddenly &quot;kicks in&quot;).
