I've been type 1 since age 3 & I'm now 41, so don't know life without it! Can I ask what is meant by 'basal testing'? I know the basal is the long-acting 24 hour insulin but how do you test the effect of only that one? My blood sugars go high & low very often but I think that's because of busy lifestyle and general stresses life throws, so rushing round everywhere, always on the go, leads to low blood sugars which I then over-compensate for by eating too much as I feel starving which then leads to highs later or next morning if was hypo near bed time</p></blockquote><p></p>
