[QUOTE="Chas C, post: 2434016, member: 49223"] So this is something I'm always doing, pre delivery and extended. Takes a bit of thought to get right and adjustment too. I started with a 20min advance dose of 30% with remaining 70% spread over 75mins. Did this for a year or so then started to adapt to suit food type, exercise (pre-post meal), pre meal BG's (although was doing that in first years - if low then no upfront but adjust instant dose vs delayed), illness. It works really well for me. One other thing I have found is that if you do a straight correction insulin dose the pump suspends CIQ for about an hour, however if you use a Carb dose to apply the correction insulin then CIQ carries on working, although you do need to take this into account when looking at history and total carbs. Also you can apply carb doses (either for correction or food) during an extended bolus (but only as instant - not extended) then the original extended carries on as it was set. [/QUOTE]
