[QUOTE="youone, post: 545854, member: 109525"] As I said its the DVLA that has set the level at 4 and tbh anything below this should be treated As for using gels, in my experience taking a fluid is quicker and also less difficult I use gels for running especially past the 10k because they keep a steady BG and not a spike in blood glucose Re testing is for safety reasons since the PDM with the omnipod pump Has had a number of recent recalls because of faulty strips with some PWD having very high and low readings the supply of correct strips is still behind with myself still ringing Abbott to obtain these As a omnipod user I would recommend where possible to re test with a 2nd metre if PWD is not happy Of course if your BG is below 2 you take then test later Personly I don't lightly send my control to the wind by over taking QA carbs when low 1 to 2 CP of the PWD choice is enough [/QUOTE]
