What are your basal rates?

[Jennywren]

12-1am=1.65 12-1pm=1.45
1-2am =1.60 1-2pm=1.45
2-3am=1.60 2-3pm=1.45
3-4am=1.60 3-4pm=1.50
4-5am =1.65 4-5pm=1.50
5-6am=1.55 5-6pm=1.55
6-7am=1.60 6-7pm=1.50
7-8am= 1.50 7-8pm=1.50
8-9am =1.60 8-9pm=1.55
9-10am=1.60 9-10pm=1.55
10-11am =1.55 10-11pm=1.55
11-12md=1.50 11-12pm=1.55

total = 37 units

but still having a lot of night time hypos during night and day so still tweaking

Here are mine for first half of the monthly cycle for normal working day - although never have a "normal" (or predictable) day at work ;-)

midnight 0.60
2am 0.70
8am 0.80
midday 0.60
3pm 0.50
6pm 0.80
8pm 0.70
10pm 0.60

Don't know if this will work, but made a quick graph of everyone's basal rates so far to see if there are any trends. Hopefully it is attached...

My basal totals off the top off my head as I would have to dig out my written version or go tight through the pump setting.

My Total basal is between 7.4 units and 9.8 units.. lowest is 0.2 highest is 0.6.. And then depending on what I eating I use between 5-9 units of insulin per day

That is brilliant Julia! 🙂

Thats really interesting Julia thanks for doing that .

0:00 - 03:00 0.9 u/h
03:00 - 05:00 0.7 u/h
05:00 - 09:00 1.3 u/h (dawn phenomenon...)
09:00 - 14:00 0.75 u/h
14:00 - 18:00 0.6 u/h
18:00 - 22:00 0.9 u/h
22:00 - 0:00 0.75 u/h

That's a total of 20.55 units for me! Seems like those of us who need more than 13 units of basal insulin are in the minority! I only take around 18 units in the weekend though because I sleep in longer and don't suffer from Dawn Phenomenon as badly.

Interesting thread!
