[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 1360050, member: 17713"] Totally agree with not eating if levels over 8. In these scenarios its a good way to test your correction doses you are giving (I assume). On a day like you had with level at 11 I would have done a correction, tested hourly and see if it came down to normal target levels 5 hours later. Also if you had scanned every 15 mins in that 1st hour or you checked your graphs it would tell you what your off set time for bolus's to start working. This would them help you to know how far ahead before food that you need to bolus for a normal meal. Also have you got 1/2 Unit pens to enable you to tweak your insulin better or have you been given 1 unit dosage pens? [/QUOTE]
