Don't you just hate it and feel really stupid when you think you've bolused, and then your blood glucose tells you you haven't... :(

Prior to breakfast, had blood tested, dialled in the carb amount, selected the bolus type and got to the deliver screen on the remote. I must have been interrupted and failed to press deliver. First I realised was as the feelings of rising blood glucose took over.

Went back and reviewed my data, and I'd clearly forgotten. **** it. At least I noticed it relatively quickly and looks like I won't escalate to double figures. Still annoying though :banghead::banghead::banghead:
 
Thank goodness for my new echo pen, I can check when I had my last dose and the time scale :). But definitely annoying and a bit dopey too:rolleyes:

It can be very annoying, I often forget to take medication that's due to illness rather than distraction, I have found myself either taking a double dose of Glicazide or forgetting to take it altogether. Only last night I got a marker pen on the foil ringing around am, and pm, then putting days along it. I feel a bit stupid, perhaps I should ask for my medication to be dispensed in a medipack......... thats the problem with taking ten tablets at night and four tablets in the morning.......lol
 
Lol (and sorry for laughing) but that's me all over !! :woot:
