Hi,

It is good to note that you are eating and exercising well. However, it is dangerous to make any changes in the insulin dosage by yourself without consulting your doctor. I do not think it is a wise idea.

In addition, changes in the insulin dosage have to be made once in 3 months after doing the gylcosylated hemoglobin test by your doctor.

Please consult your treating doctor and then change the dosage.

I wish you a healthy life.
