Hey all!!! I was wondering if anyone could help me? I have recently found out I am pregnant again (unplanned but happy) and wont be seeing my DSN for another week. I can now explain what has been happening to my sugars over the last couple of months but I have now idea with where to start...

Hey all... I put a post up a few weeks ago because I was having a huge amount of hypos... This evening I've had the confirmation to why... I suspected it at the time due to past experience but tests said no (plus we were well protected :oops: ) it turns out I look to be expecting my 3rd...

When I first went onto the Veo I was using quicksets and right from the word go I got 5 No Deliveries in the first 2 set changes... Moved quickly onto the silhouettes and in about 6 months Ive only had 1 no delivery 1 full day after I inserted... the reasoning does sound feasable, Im no expert...

I dont correct after 30mins, I started doing the 2hour after eating and when high I would correct, 1hour 30mions after the correction my levels are usually acceptable and remain at that level for quite some period of time until recently when they are dropping but they can drop anywhere between...

hmmm thats strange a lot of people saying humalog active for 4hours+... my DSN set the 2 hours but I have found when I've been compensating for high sugars after 1hr30mins my sugars wont drop any further :? me thinks im going to text my DSN and arrange another appointment LOL

Hi again Im testing my basal by checking sugars on an hourly basis during the periods I am fasting, usually between 7pm and 12pm and 11am to 6pm and 3pm to 8pm - I dont eat at least 2 hours before "fasting" but do aim more for 3+ hours before Im using Humalog insulin with a "active" of 2...

Hi, I've been havings problems recently and I have very little idea of whats going wrongs. I am hypo 4+ times a day and 2 or 3 nghts a week I will have a severe nighttime hypo (hubby would get an A* in giving glucogon injections) I am using insulin pump so am testing very regular and to my...

I unfortunately have no symptoms when I hypo during the night, or none that wake me... My husband usually has to bring me round with glucogon injection once ive started with cold sweats and am having muscle spasms and then it will take 4hours+ for my sugars to get out of hypo range (my last...

I swear I do not have a clue whats going on atm :( I've had high blood sugars since august (hba1c went from 6.7 to 8.0) but generally was feeling OK... then in november/december I decided to get a bad kidney infection (3 lots of antibioticsover a period of 4 weeks and a lot of time off work in...

To get this thread back on topic... :) I think what was being asked was people's experiences with children being diagnosed, ie are kids admitted to hospital now a days and that kinda thing (23 years ago I was admitted for over a month - but then I think I was a bit of an exception to the rule)

Hey! Everytime I have had an infection my sugars have gone up... 1 month ago I had quite a bad Kidney infection (and my sugars predictably went up) ever since I finished the antibiotics I haven't felt "right" but my sugars have settled down... Over the last few days ive started getting...

mine is set at 2hours and then Im considering dropping it to 1hour30minutes :) if im "high" at 1hour30 after eating I do a correction and disregard the active insulin because I have found little (if any) change in my sugars in the following 30mins if i dont correct :)

HBA1c has gone up to 64 (8.0) :( but at least it's not as bad as ive been expecting :) my DSN did tell me with the results i've achieved for the last 3 days since i changed my basal, if they continue it should go down to about 7 :)

I was doing OK up until about 2 months ago when my sugars started going through the roof... Even my DSN couldnt explain what was going on... Id do my sugar at 3am and have an OKish of between 5 & 8 however by 6 it would sometimes shot up to 20+ but othertimes only go up to about 14 (and yes I...

Bah I'm due to see my DSN in a couple of hours and will have the results of my first HBA1c since going on the insulin pump!!! I was 6.7 before going on the pump and I know with the horrendous high blood sugars I have had in the last couple of month that its going to have gone up a lot :( I hope...

I started on the quickset but kept getting"no delivery" so moved onto the silhouettes. I'm not "slim" (but loosing weight atm :D ) so it suprised my DSN. I did have issues with the silhouettes in my tummy with causing pain however I have now changed where I insert them (side) and have had few...

The nurse has put me on the sensor to try and figure out what on earth is going on with my sugars for a week and I left hospital at 2:15, and since, every 15minutes I have been getting "Lost Sensor" :( I have no idea what i need to do to sort it out :( has anyone else who has been "loaned" the...

I always have glucogon in now, I have to get a new prescription usually 2 or 3 a month for a new 1!!! :) Painkillers im on are ibuprophen and co-codomol as and when I can have them... Almost a week on and my sore throat is still waking me up in the middle of the night and stopping me eating...

Well this last week has been an interesting week for me... about 7pm last Sunday evening I was starting to feel a little sicky, so tested to make sure I wasnt high and was 3.4... anyway struggled to have some lucozade as you do... by end of night I was being physically sick and continued to be...

I never knew these existed until a couple of months ago when I saw 1 in my local tescos!!!!! I was wondering if anyone has had any experience in them? I'm just asking really to see whether or not it would be something I would be considered for, my daytime hypo awareness is better than it used...
