Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning everyone. Well I changed my cannula at 6pm when I was 4 and steadily went up to 13 so changed my cannula at 10pm. Didn't correct but woke up at 5am at 2.2😱 hope this doesn't happen before the interview tomorrow. I think that I will be correcting today as it was a "feed me" hypo and I had chocolate buttons after my Lucozade🙄:D

Blimey, my blood sugar was all over the place for interviewing last year, quite the choppy ride. I took someone's advice here and took diluted juice in a plastic bottle with me to help with the lows that came after the peaks, worked very well, so might be worth doing. I hope it stays super stable for you and the interview goes really well 🙂
 
Thankyou KookyCat for the good luck and the advice🙂 I'm hoping that having the pump will help, just hoping that the pump doesn't decide to sound an alarm during the interview😎🙂

It might prove a good distraction...especially if the interrogation gets too intense 😉

Sorry to hear this Amanda, I hope things stabilise for you today and that things run smoothly for you tomorrow. If it's something you are passionate about - and it clearly is - then just be yourself and let them see that, you will ace it! 🙂
 
Aaah thank you Alan🙂
 
Morning all. 🙂 8.4 here. Some tweaking needed!😛

Good luck, AJ. I'm sure you'll be fine...your 5.99 shows what a skilled pumper you are!😛
 
Thank you Bloden🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 6.2 for me.

The Smartguard technology on my new pump is suspending basal delivery for a couple of 30-40 minute periods overnight until my bg stops falling and the outcome so far is I'm not waking up in the 3's and 4's which is a nice change.

Good luck with your interview and bg levels Amanda, I hope it all goes very well for you 🙂

That's brilliant Flower! You should let Medtronic know! 🙂
 
Thanks Northerner, I keep gazing at my new pump lovingly, I'd never have thought a piece of medical equipment would have that effect on me 😉

I'm going back to my pump clinic in a couple of weeks with the Medtronic Rep to see how things are going and I will indeed be saying what a great feature the Smartguard is - even better - I turned the alarm level down and didn't know the pump had suspended twice in the night until I checked the history this morning 🙂
 
Flower that's fantastic about your pump. I'm so pleased for you🙂 thank you for your good luck for my interview🙂

So, a good night's sleep every night - fantastic! So glad your new pump will make life a little more comfortable, Flower.
