    Wrong insulin?

    Yeah, its not necessarily a bad insulin, its just an old regime that isn't suited to the knowledge and understanding we have now... my brother is still on it and keep bugging him to get it changed.....they want to see him testing more though, which makes sense I suppose but I believe the...

    Diabetes and chewing gum

    I wouldn't say that it was the gum that was responsible....or the activity of chewing itself..... I would do some basal testing over the full day to identify any discrepancies there..... a drop in levels still need insulin in order to pass the glucose into the cells of the body, or its the...

    Breakfast for type 1

    I like my eggs, either 3 fried on two small wholemeal slices of toast or three scrambled on toast..... I think hunger is just one of those things......the longer you stick with certain breakfast items the more your stomach gets used it to it and the hunger should settle..... maybe try looking...

    Does interstitial flud go out when I insert the microneedle from a CGM or Insulin Pump?

    Type 1 High BG

    Was it just a McDonald's chicken burger and chip then? That goes through me quite quickly even though you would expect it not too......processed you see.... I would definitely give it another go and see what happens :).... What was your carb count? A burger and large chips usually comes in...

    Type 1 High BG

    As you can see there could be a few possibilities..... High fat meal, digestion issues, dose error, dodgy site or dare I say it, a one off with no explanation....;)

    Humulin m3

    Are you still taking a quick acting bolus then? M3 is a mix, so you will be getting some quick acting bolus with the M3 also, so its a strange insulin choice if you're already on MDI..

    Struggling with dawn phenomena...

    I suppose it is a confusing question, I just meant have you added any additional rates on to the one or two that you started on...... I have 10 you see, which was slowly added to as I down basal tests over the years to deal with certain highs and lows I had seen during basal tests. Mine are as...

    Struggling with dawn phenomena...

    I would recommend doing a test in the evening right trough till morning, do that for a few nights and note down the readings as it makes it much easier when making adjustment decisions.... have you established your own basal rates in the time you have had the pump? have you added on any extra...

    Struggling with dawn phenomena...

    So are you saying there is no pattern to your blood glucose rises overnight then.....? if its happening when you go to sleep thats not dawn phenomenon, which I suppose gives some hope as you cant really stop DP, but the pump normally deals with it.... When was the last time you done a full 24...

    Pump Upgrade

    Well, its not the exact same pump, got a new one after the warranty was up but it was still the same model.... It didn't bother me if it meant more people getting a pump.... Expecting more options this time around though.....NHS Lanarkshire I fall under....

    Pump Upgrade

    I still rocking the Veo nearly 8 years in.....:wideyed::wideyed:.... The medtronic would always feel like the most reliable and safe choice for me but some of the underdog pumps seem quite exciting....
