Hi all, over the last few days I've almost had perfect the control. I have had a few double figure readings but not as many as I'm used to.

Does anyone else crave sugar once getting things in order.

I only have days to wait until I get my pump eeeeek :) :) :).

Hypos, rude people, ignorance and grey days.
Looks like you are doing a grand job there. Have managed to wean myself off the sweet stuff so fortuantely no cravings - I now pine for cheese instead !!

Good luck with the pump, exciting times, what you getting ?

Is it correct that you are having 40 CP's at meals through the day?? 1CP=10g of carbs

It seems awfully high, and needing a lot of insulin to correct it?

Yea, usually a sandwich or 2 slices if toast. From roughly 7am until 12pm my ratio is 1:1.5 and the rest of the day is 1:1.
