Hi. I’m not gonna lie, I’m about to complain. Peep the pic of the Dexcom. That’s my last 12 hours. 117 at bedtime. 375 by 2:30am. 5 units of correction. 41 by 4:58am. GU pack. 223 when I wake up. 2.5 units of correction. 62 by the time I get to work. Damn. The. Pizza. Party. Last. Night.

Tough night! I’ve got “scone” and “fight with my husband” mountains today. This stuff happens. You still average out to 150 or so, which is better than most diabetics!

While the beeping is annoying, can you set the lines closer? I’ve moved high to 180 and low to 70 so that corrections happen earlier and I don’t bounce around as much.

Thanks for the tip rose, I may set those closer so I can catch stuff earlier, although I think that might increase the amount of beeping I’m hearing. I love the “scone” and “fight with my husband” mountains – haha, that’s a good name for them! It does happen, but its so hard not to feel bad about yourself and your management when you’re bouncing around so much :( I hate that feeling!
