I have had a bad head cold the past week and a half. What I have done to try to keep in control is set a temp basal rate about 125-150% of normal and bolus higher than normal. If you don't have a pump you might want to increase your basal dose somewhat and just bolus higher. Oh, make sure you test, test, test and when in doubt test.
