Length was fine.
Thank you for the information and how you handled it.
I don't think my spouse has been doing the food journal and will mentioned to her.

I do see her getting very frustated with why is so high put insulin in or can't get it to come back up, etc.
Thanks again

There are different types of insulin. Fast acting within 1/2 hour, reg insulin, long acting. I was on all three types. I am sensitive to insulin so needed small amounts of each type. 8-9 units of NPH and 2 units of Reg in morning. At dinner time I took Ultralente = long acting. Took me through the night. If sugars were to high, during illness, I would need to take 2-3 units of Reg. Balancing act!
