Yeah it trickles it in over the day. You can split one unit into 20 parts pretty darn awesome. So you could have 1.05 units

Ok so I'm only a week into pumping and been loving it. I noticed today after my evening meal that my insulin wasnt that effective. I was due a pump change tonight at 9.30pm. I felt around my omnipod and it felt a little hot. I've switched site early and noticed I have a 2 inch raised circle...

Seriously look into a miao miao. I would never just use the libre software if is way inaccurate. You can calibrate the software with finger pricks which makes it so accurate. Plus if you have a smart watch like ticwatch pro, samsung, apple watch and some models of fitbit you can get alerts on...

4.6 for me. Moved onto an omnipod pump always between 4 and 5. Life changing.

Absolutely loving day three on the pump. I can't actually comprehend how good it is compared to Injectons. I've lowered my basal insulin to 0.85 per hour. I think my body wasnt working with levirmir anymore I was on almost 40 units a day. I had 3 units of insulin for a 15g of carb meal this...

Hey guys, So I received my omnipod last monday. Have a zoom meeting half day session on monday to learn how to use it..spoke to my diabetic nurse on Friday she gave me some initial settings to use. I've been a little naughty and started using it myself. Read the manual and watched a few...

Definitely me

Hi guys, So I seem to have quite high insulin requirements for some reason. I take around 38 units of levirmir per day. It's the fast acting I seem to need a lot of. I've worked out that I roughly need 1 unit per 3 grams of carbs, but in the mornings I need more. So this morning I needed 18...

I haven't yet, but I've read into testing, going to do this the first day I get the pump.

I would only consider tubeless pumps. Heard too many people have issues with blocked pipes etc. And don't want cables etc. I'll see how I go I've received my pump through the post but have an e class to learn how to use it. I think I may possibly have built up a resistance to my long acting...

Hi guys. First thing is I control my blood sugars quite tight. I do occasionally eat sugars but I compensate this by taking high levels of fast acting insulin. On a day by day basis I typically take 50 units of rapidinsulin and 34 units of levirmir. My rapid acting (fiasp) I can take upto 25...

Mine was 35. Lowest it's ever been. Thanks to getting my libre and miao miao got my control even better.

So I'd been low carving for about 18 months and taking moderate protein. My aim was to keep blood sugars between 4 and 7.8, it worked but at times would spike higher due to the protein intake. I've been introducing carbs back into my diet with fiasp insulin. I've been testing it extensively. I...

They've been great if only had the libre 50 days and I've had 5 sensors replaced. I've only had one sensor last the full 14 days!, But never had one show a blank space on the readings.

So my last sensor lasted one day. Before getting a sensor read error. My new sensor shows a huge gap in my readings even though I've scanned about 15 times during the time frame. Theres some clock symbol saying something about gmt 0 to gmt 0. Can anyone please assist?
