I’m thinking a basal increase is needed, but I’m not sure. Are there other things you all have found that increases BG and IR?
(*) I haven’t made any changes to my bolus correction calculations. My target is still 90 mg/dl and I’m still taking 1u NovoLog for every 15 mg/dl above my target. I’m not doing this any more than 3-4 hours apart so that IoB winds up making me hypo. Although I did have a hypo Friday night. Felt my usual hypo symptoms, tested and sure enough 54 mg/dl. Sucked some glucose gel and was back to normal range in about an hour, although I still felt crappy the rest of the evening.
And now that I’ve just typed that last part I’m wondering if 15g of carbs via glucose gel could be responsible for all this wackiness all these days later. I don’t have a lot of experience with the gel.
Any thoughts would be most appreciated. I’ll be back in a few hours.
