[QUOTE="Bluemarinejosephine, post: 2640074, member: 238056"] Dear Glen, I hope this message finds you well. I want to extend my gratitude for your prompt response to my previous email and for sharing your valuable advice. To ensure that I have grasped your recommendations correctly, I would appreciate your confirmation on the following points: [LIST] [*]For brief exercise sessions, you suspend your insulin completely 1 hour before the exercise session. [*]When your Libre sensor indicates an upward trend and you have ceased insulin administration from your insulin pump, you then initiate an insulin delivery at a rate of 10% of your basal rate before commencing your training session. [/LIST] I would like to clarify the timing of resuming your normal basal rate after completing your exercise session. If we assume that your training session lasts for 45 minutes to an hour and you have maintained a basal rate of 10% insulin during this time, when do you transition back to your regular basal setting? Is it after waiting for 1-hour post-exercise? So, to summarize the process: [LIST] [*]Suspend insulin 1 hour before exercise. [*]Initiate a 10% basal mode when you observe the upward trend and then start your exercise. [*]Upon finishing the exercise, continue with the 10% basal mode for 1 hour. [*]After the 1-hour post-exercise period, return to your normal basal setting. [/LIST] Is my understanding of this sequence, correct? I greatly appreciate your guidance on this matter. Thank you once again for your assistance. Warm regards, Josephine [/QUOTE]
