[QUOTE="iHs, post: 887661, member: 8799"] Hi everyone who uses insulin, especially the newbies..... In very hot temperatures, insulin tends to work much quicker due to blood vessels dilating so beware of low bg levels and test bg a bit more and probably best to play safe and reduce twice daily by 1 or 2u or if on basal/bolus....reduce the basal by 1 or 2u. Drink plenty of fluids and use a fan if need be. I will be doing a TBR on my pump. All the best and be safe [/QUOTE]
