[QUOTE="martina, post: 1009538, member: 26617"] Thanks, I did some basal testing and there were spot on which meant it had to be the bolus so I have made the changes however even that isn't working great at the moment. For example yesterday morning she work at 6.8 and was 5.0 at the 10am check. She had her snack but by 12pm she was 10.4.The same this has happened today. She woke at 6.9 and I gave less bolus then yesterday. Come 10am she was 6.3 and had her snack as usual. She then did a test at 11.1at the start of an hour of P.E, she was 4.7 so she took another snack only because we thought one would be needed for the exercise. 12pmshe was 9.4. I think I need to give less at 9am to stop it being so low at 11am but also a bit more at 10am to stop the rise at 12pm. would you agree. To be honest her levels are very erratic and I am struggling to get them under control even with the pump. She suffers from hypo unawareness and has never been able to pick up on signs of lows, hence lots of checks. If you have any advice on controlling the sugars during puberty etc I would love to hear it as right now it feels like we are fighting a losing battle. Martina [/QUOTE]
