I’ve been meaning to blog about my bolus rates. It’s been pretty interesting. When I first started I saw fluctutions, my total daily dose swung widely, and I thought I might even end up at a 1:12 ratio but each day the average usage got closer and closer.
Right now I’m consisent around 45 units a day with fasting blood sugar at under 110. My post pranial is in the mid 130s.

Actually it pertains to me. The people that I have trained agility with have noticed that Marcie (big beagle), often “stops” me from running when I am not feeling well. Often when I was having GERD related asthma, she would actually stop and urinate to get me to stop.
Last Thursday night my blood sugar was a tad low and she wouldn’t work.
And tonight, my blood sugar was also low while I was on the treadmill and she insisted that she HAD to go out now.
Seeing as how I came close to dropping a pickle jar on her last year when I was low (yes, I dropped the jar, missed the dog), you can see why she might learn to stop me when low.

This is good since I sort of survive on my Palm.

Neither was my blood sugar. Sitting still all day made it go high. I finally got it in the right range, and then had trouble keeping it high enough.
I’m hoping to try working out in the morning, and a 20% temp basal and see have that works.
Someone who hasn’t seen me since right before the diabetes diagnosis commented that I appeared healthier and more animated now than I had appeared before
I think this is a good thing.
as predicted, sitting still isn’t good for blood sugar so I upped my temp basal by 5% — of course I won’t see a difference for 2 hours and we have to eat in that time period.
Well so far this has been fun. I found out the a friend’s position is “open” and it’s one I would like to apply for.
Several problems:
She’ll be a bit difficult to be around if I do.
Insurance is supposed to be better
I’m three years from incentive pay and I’m in the middle of a master’s degree.
She puts in a lot more energy than I do.
I think the pay is less.
So I don’t know
I hate them. 4 1/2 days of sitting still and the presenter pours a years worth of data into your head. its hard on the blood sugar too.
they provide lunch and it will be interesting to see what we get. breakfast was jason’s deli. carb fest! I had have a muffin.
… moBloged so pardon the lack of caps
One of the reasons I got my pump was Sunday mornings….
Sunday is my alone and quiet time — I do do my laundry, but I do everything at the speed I want to do it in…
I “sleep out” which means to me, sleeping until I want to get up. Sometimes I sleep until noon, sometimes I’m up before 8:00. I piddle, I do what I want to do on my time. I even ignore my dogs.
Back in the MDI days, that’s when I would hit low the most often. Terrifying times, fortunately I had a nurse line I could call to get help.
But today … I didn’t get up until almost 8:00, I didn’t eat until almost 9:00, I took about two hours to get my work out in, and I haven’t even finished the first load laundry yet.
But my blood sugar has been constant all day until lunch. Between 104 and 115. Not bad.
