[QUOTE="sleepster, post: 2303163, member: 482479"] If I were correcting and I was in your situation (14.2, correction of 3 vs correction of 2 etc) I'd go for 2 units but I am insulin resistant when I'm high so I'd probably need an extra correction so would check my blood after the correction of 2 units. My pump would adjust the correction for the active insulin I had. Your correction hasn't done what it was meant to so I'd try and work out why that was, if you're not insulin resistant when you're high was it that you were still digesting a meal or illness or one of the other 6027 things that can affect BG levels ;) Sometimes active insulin and corrections are straight forward to work out but sometimes it's trial and error.
