[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 1984586, member: 101136"] Hi [USER=497411]@Colin Crowhurst[/USER] , A change of job with rotating shift patterns is not out of the question.. "Needs must..." & all that. However, the insulin regime maybe a little too rigid to accommodate the shift patterns you've mentioned with the new career.. It may suit you using an MDI regime. (Basal/bolus.) if you're planning this sort of working hour pattern? I worked with a guy half my age a while back on a Novomix & he struggled to keep up with what was a pretty "ad hock" work profile throwing his BG about.. I'm 50 year old bloke. I spent my youth on 2 jabs & regular feeding times. I'm pretty certain I couldn't keep "rock & roll" working hours on the regime. Hope this helps. & good luck with the career move. [/QUOTE]
