I’d reduced my basal and meal ratios because of hypos in this heat and all was going well - until today. My blood sugar suddenly went up a bit late afternoon for no reason, and then shot up madly. I decided it would be best to change my pump cannula just in case, and when I took it out, I found the most bent cannula I’d ever seen. It even left a purple line along my skin. It must have been practically horizontal in there. Arrghhhh!
I’m not sure if the photo shows it well but here we are:
The leg thing was the weirdest because it felt really uncomfortable taking the cannula out and the dark purple line under the skin looks freaky. Fortunately for anyone reading this, I didn’t manage to get a pic of that
Just as I was thinking I’d sorted the heat-related lows, the good old D throws in a mad high 🙄 Just hoping it will settle down a bit now as I want to go to sleep soon!
