Hi guys! I’m Debora, a type 1-diabetic on Omnipod (Fiasp) and Dexcom G6. I’m currently 18-weeks pregnant with my first child and having some doubts regarding pre-bolusing with Fiasp - I’m doing a 10’ pre bolus and it’s enough for now but I wonder if, when I get more insulin resistant, it’s safe...

Hi everyone! I'm Debora and, recently I've started using the OpenAps with Fiasp - my problem is that when I eat carby foods, I need to take te normal bolus and set an alarm to take more half the initial dose 2h after (the SMB feature helps, but its never enough to correct me back to range). Does...

Hey guys! I use the Accu Chek Spirit Combo pump and for the last 3 changes, my tubes have gone kind of pink/red even though there's no blood anywhere - check photo (specially where the catheter is inserted) - do you guys have any ideia what could be happening?

Hey guys! So I'm wondering - how often do you have to change your basal rate, considering maintaining a similar carb intake and physical exercise? I'm struggling with that a lot - last week I was using 30% of the week before and this one I'm using 110-130% (I usually just use the temporary...

Hey everyone - I'm feeling really down these past days. After having an amazing week, doing sports eating healthy low carb and great BS and using like 20-40% is my basal needs, I came back this week with crazy highs all the time, insomnia and just feeling really disappointed at myself and just...

Hey everyone, I use the insulin pump from Accu Chek - Spirit Combo for about 2,5 years and I already had to change it once because of problems regarding the batteries (it kept turning off). That happened one year ago. Now, since last week, I'm having the same problem and I even had to return on...

Hello everyone! I'm a type 1 following low carb diet and physical exercise everyday. But Friday I ate more meat than usual (2 hamburgers, only with salad and guacamole) and my glycemia went from 4 (pre meal), to 6 (after 2h, and I had 0,3u of novorrapid) to 17 during the night and all morning...

Hey Guys!

Why do you think that...

Hey everyone! I'm having some problems in adjusting my basal dose in the pump when I do any physical activity - I'm ending up always having hypoglycemias, not during the exercise (I usually put the TBD in 90 or 80%), but specially at night =( Does anyone have any experience to share so I can...
