| thanks people...i do definitely normally need less (esp basal) when in hot places so if anything its the insulin being exposed to heat, but again im pretty careful (keep pens and spare cartridges in fridge and use ice packs in pouch when out for days)....one thing i wondered though, if my pens are in a pouch with ice packs during the day and towards the end of the day they have melted, i wonder whether they were warm enough for long enough to cause an issue. my understanding was that more proteins begin to denature at much higher temperatures so they would be ok for a short time around 30 or so? i have been really silly though and mixed up a variety of cartridges now so not sure which i took and which i didnt. maybe i should get a new prescription and scrap all of them and start afresh! what a pain....
