[QUOTE="Fairygodmother, post: 2261925, member: 68789"] Well, for me the usual sign is that my blood sugars rise much more than usual, especially overnight during the time when the last bolus of the day has ceased to be active, and when the first bolus the next morning becomes active. I will also need more bolus to get blood sugars to come down again, even if I’ve taken correction doses during the night. I always have an internal discussion going on at these times: is it a bug, did I miscalculate for what I’ve eaten, have I been stressed, is the needle blocked, is the pen working properly, how long has the basal been out of the fridge, did the frio heat up etc etc. If my blood sugars don’t resolve over 24-36 hours, and I can find no other cause, then I change the basal cartridge. Nine times out of ten everything goes back to normal, not perfect but normal. [/QUOTE]
