[QUOTE="heidibada, post: 1121533, member: 286269"] I hadn't experienced an intense need for more insulin leading up to the cycle starting, until a few months ago. I created a new basal pattern in my pump but still tweaking it. I need more insulin about a week before it starts until flow is just about to end. Then i start getting super lows. Maybe I need a third pattern to cover the 2-3 day 'recovery' phase, then switch to the regular basal & bolus settings that are quite low doses. It feels traumatic at the time, especially when it dawns on me after a while of not realizing I simply need to switch pump settings. Thanks to those who brought enough conversation to this subject for me to see it, and start paying attention to what might be happening day to day, with new insight. [/QUOTE]
