In the end, if I don't like it, I can always switch back without too much drama. I see my biggest hurdle as the bolus calculation. I've never really figured out my Insulin to Carb ratio. I guess it's time to start counting and get a baseline. | You should have yout I:C ratio worked out if you are on a pump or mdi. It is very important to have these right no matter which method you prefer. |
