First dose was today and started with 20 units.
Curious if this is considered low normal or high?
20 didn’t do much so trying 35 tomorrow
Bottle says
30mg. 1 mg. 10 mcc

Again, I would recommend caution. How do you know that you were in the sweet spot.
Also, it depends on your mix. I started with 5 units and now have settled in with 8 units that works great for me.
I would not jump up by 75 % of your first dose on your second try. I would recommend trying 20 units again. If you get similar results, try 25 units.
The last thing you want is to end up in the ER having a Dr sticking a needle in your unit sucking the blood out because you used too high of a dose.

He prefilled a 30 a 40 and 50 unit syringe. He examined me after the 20 and said 30 will probably be my dose so maybe I will try 25 or 30.
Been frustrated with nothing working so inpatient
