Is it safe to skip an insulin dose if i am diabetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It hurts you entire body a little bit and you probably will not even feel it. Missing a dose means your glucose ( sugar) lever will rise this harms the retina, kidneys heart and almost anything else. Its never good to miss Insulin doses
