| | | U.S. time change question
by changing the time on my pump, will I notice any major changes in my blood sugars?
i.e.- will i have more highs or lows?

| | | This is only my third time change since I started pumping and I have not noticed any difference after time change. Our bodies are remarkable machines that seem to adjust to almost everything.

| | I was at 300 this morning...my normal fasting blood sugar is 85. So I guess I'll just keep the time on my pump the same until my schedule seems to fall more in line...for today, I'm all over the place.  |
