Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Insulin dose decided on the basis of blood glucose level both fasting and after food. Plus there are different types of insulins, it is not which one you are using. There are rapid acting and long acting insulins plus combination of both.
It is given in units per dose, not as ml. Taking excess insulin is not advised. It causes hypoglycemia. Thanks.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, Apart from taking medicines do proper exercises for your knees. Exercises like strenght training of your quadriceps especially VMO, stretching for hamstring, calf,TFl, proprioceptive training, apply ice 3 times a day if it is swelled too much, you can also apply hinged knee brace if you feel pain during walking in your knees. Consult a good qualified Physiotherapist for proper care further.

Ayurveda very good medicines for diabetes and weakness.
वात पित्त कफ दोष आयुर्वेद चिकित्सा के आधार हैं अतः रोगी की प्रकृति और दोष के आधार पर हम भोजन, परहेज, दिनचर्या ,योग और प्राणायाम के साथ कुछ आयुर्वेदिक दवाइयां लेने का परामर्श देते हैं और परिणाम बहुत अच्छे मिलते हैं परंतु उसके लिए व्यक्तिगत रूप से फोन अथवा वीडियो कॉल द्वारा बात करना आवश्यक है।
