I did need to add s correction with diner and last time I checked a about an hour agoof about 11.2 which yeah are quite high but wouldn't call out of control yet but just wondering at which numbers should I start seeing as out of control.

Hiya @rayray119 - at the moment, my correction factor is 4 and my target BG is 7, so I have a correction dose if I’m over 11. Your question has made me realise that I don’t like to think in terms of being “out of control” 
- I’m a reformed control freak, so I’m more comfortable saying to myself “oh no, my BG is high”.🙂
- I’m a reformed control freak, so I’m more comfortable saying to myself “oh no, my BG is high”.🙂Yes it was just she said "if you blood sugers get out controll come back in" just thinking when at what number should I do what she said. Just checked for keystones as well(because six day rules and all that) 0.4 which is still known to be safe but when weather I check usally because of illnes or an expected highs I'm usally around 0.1 0r 2

I guess you could ring your endo or DSN (the ‘she’ that you mentioned) and ask her what she means. Sorry I can’t be of more help.
