[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1313160, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=28685]@samantha13[/USER] Sounds like you're having a bad time of it at the moment. The bullying is unacceptable, can you speak to HR about this, from what you've said I don't think talking to your boss will resolve this. This in itself will cause stress and high BG as you have pointed out too. Can you also make a note of what's being said/when etc, so like a diary of this behaviour so you have a record ? Bullying is very often a sign of insecurity so flip it on it's head to help you cope better mentally - try and pity them, but whatever it's still not acceptable I appreciate your on MDI, can you see about getting onto a pump, it will mean adjustments are easier, you can programme in different basal settings so if you're having a really busy/hetic day you can change your pattern to suit, I appreciate this is a more longer term goal, but will make work easier to manage. It may be that your basal levels need increasing but unless you are prepared to do any basal testing it would be difficult to work this one out, particularly with stress and being busy. I tend to be more insulin resistant over 10 mmol/l so need a slightly bigger correction dose to bring my levels down, I would do the correction dose but just try and analyse your results at the end of the day, as through doing this you can get a better idea of what is going on :) [/QUOTE]
