[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1284975, member: 32394"] [USER=344100]@Colquig[/USER] if you know that your reaction to every match is to climb, then I think a bolus for the exercise rise is probably worth a try. As you are on a TDD of only 20, you should start off super cautious with your exercise bolus - maybe 1/2 unit say 5-10 mins before you usually start rising.

Do you find you stay high after a match, or do you come down ok? Would you usually correct after a match? I'd just be careful for post game hypos / hypos overnight after the game. [/QUOTE]
