How does she know how much? If my bg is at 20, I need a 100unit bolus. That could kill an average type one. If I don't get that though, I can go into DKA. Either way the system is risking lives.Out of curiosity, do the police remove oxygen cylinders from people with breathing difficulties? They're potentially hazardous too.And never mind an average nurse, an average GP might not be able to transfer a patient from a pump to basal bolus.</blockquote>
