[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 499890, member: 90156"] before every meal, before bed...........and then I can also take readings between meals to check how my dose timing has worked with certain foods...... then there is before driving, hypos, illness, exercise........although I haven't had a hypo in about a week and don't exercise much, lol.... I ask these questions as most folk will need to have been thoroughly educated on how to carb count and more importantly adjust their dose, test their basal and so on, before a pump is considered. Unless of course you are having lots of hypos which are affecting your life significantly, or if you are a small child etc, and then pumps can be awarded without meeting the basic education requirements.... have you had any information regarding how to effectively use a basal/bolus regime? have you tested your Levemir recently....? Again, more questions.......;) [/QUOTE]
