I appreciate that things may well be entirely different for someone with diabetes Type 3a as opposed to a person with Type 1 - however No Way On Earth should a Type 1 EVER be accepting 'having to feed the insulin' except in a genuine emergency situation. Never 'as a matter of course' - and I firmly believe that undertaking full 24hr basal testing is the only sensible way forward for @Ivytype1.

Ivy - I have had to do this thing numerous times - and yeah, it's a bit tedious - but when you discover where the basal is a bit too much or a bit low, you can then try to work out what you can do about that and try to sort it out. Until you know where the peaks and troughs are - you can't make logical changes.
