Message: <blockquote data-quote="donnellysdogs" data-source="post: 825580" data-attributes="member: 17713">If basal testing and I went above 12.0 I would correct and carry on the basal testing time.... Without eating until the end of 5 hours because it would then prove that my correction dosage was right or wrong. If you go hypo then it is a case of stopping the testing, stop the hypo, change your basals and try testing again the next day.I am quite different to other pump users though as I only eat once a day about 5-6pm ish. I am effectively basal testing every day until that time!! So I have to have all my basals correct and finely tuned. I treat times of going to meet friends during the day as a bolus test. As I will have say a chilli wrap from Mcdonalds where I know the carbs and a plain coffee. Then I use that as a bolus test. I effectively basal/bolus test without actually realising it with my day to day living...so I am odd...</blockquote>
