High blood sugars

[steveo4]

I've been in high double figures since yesterday and just won't go down. Have changed my set by it's not made a difference. The only different thing I've started doing is I give my bolusses now via the my sugar app instead of my pump handset. If things don't improve then I think I will go back to using the handset.

Hi @steveo4, have you tried injecting a correction dose to see if that helps? Or have you maybe got covid?

Any chance your insulin has gone off in the heat???

That's a possibility I suppose but then again I keep my insulin in the fridge and only take it out when I change my set.

Could it be the hot weather? Some people need more insulin in the heat, others less.

Mine is high constantantly especially during the night when I am fasting I have no faith in omnipod I have changed to different sites the only thing I can think of is I keep forgetting to pinch up. Do you think this can cause high bs? I have changed my basals during the night and given I don’t know how many extra boliuses. I am thinking of going back to pens then I know insulin is going through…..
