    Basal/ bolus during summer

    Hi noble head, thanks for that, yeah I have been looking through the book as well, and now waiting 60 minutes after the breakfast bolus, and seems to be working better. Might try the super bolus and see how I get on with that and report back? Thanks for the help

    Insulin on board and the vibe

But when I bolus, even after 4.5 hours, the vibe still says I have a bit of insulin on board, this could last for a good 5.5 hours, this then in turn affects the bolus calculator if bolusing again after 4 hours. Has anybody else noticed this, or...
