I have been Monitoring it for Last several hours and My Monitor says I am at 69 at 10:15pm I am supposed to take 19 units type R humalin before meals(Walmart only had Novolin), 30 units type N at night. Should I eat something and take a slightly smaller dosage?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
As per you saying you are new candidate for diabetes, so you will have to adjust it in so many ways like dose of medicine, diet, timing, frequent monotoring and of course regular medical follow up but these all will come to use you no need to worry I would advise you to have word with your doctor for oral therapy if it is possible, have nice day.
