BackIrish commented on CaityJ's blog post 'lantis upset'
"If I accidently skip a Lantus dose at night I just test more throught the day and take extra very small doses of Humolog through out the day. Let us know what what you decided to do and how it worked out for you. Hope you're not high all day."
