[QUOTE="CarbsRok, post: 868116, member: 14029"] Your nurse is correct, the only way to find out what is going on is to basal test. It's obvious there is a problem so best bite the bullet and do the test. There's no point in just guessing where you need to make the change as all this does is make things worse :( As the NHS is so strapped for cash the nurse and consultant can quite rightly say ok you haven't time to use the pump properly so best take it away from you.. We all hate basal testing but it's part and parcel of having a pump. Other option is to ask if there is loan of a cgm so you can see where the highs start. This doesn't substitute basal testing though, just gives a good idea. [/QUOTE]
