Hi, Ive been on a pump for a few years and had T1 for more than 30, long enough, but hey ..... I saw in another thread about the fact you should give a shot/bolus for when you eat protein. Ive never done this, the theory was I think that you calculate the protein value of a food, divide it by 4 and then thats the amount you give in insulin units.
It all sounds like black magic to me, but is this correct? Anyone know for sure? Perhaps thats where Ive been going wrong all these years?!
