I was recently discussing with others their occasional issue of noticing “stinging” from Fiasp and Lyumjev insulins. Curious, I looked at a block of 7 of my recent days, and counted the boluses the system delivered. In that time there were 639 boluses, which is an average of 91 per day. Overall I do seem …
I’ve written in the past about “Streaking“, and how expectations of getting 100% Time-In-Range can be unreasonable. Any of us can be within range for 5 minutes, but the longer and longer we measure the harder and harder it gets to not cross either of those borders. Unless the range is unreasonably large of course. …
I’m a big believer in Automated Insulin Delivery systems. This is what “closed loops” have evolved into. They’ve made a huge difference to my life with T1D, but I’m conscious that many people are shut out from being able to access them. Sometimes they don’t even know what they’re missing. In NZ the government is …
I’ve mentioned previously a clinical trial I was involved in running, in which 20 people used AndroidAPS and research YpsoPumps. The next trial is now up and running. It’s called “CLOSE IT” (or sometimes CloseIt or Close-It) which stands for “Closed Loop Open SourcE In Type 1 diabetes”. No in case you’re wondering, I didn’t …
In a conversation about a recent article about my fully-closed looping a question was posed to me about how my body (and AID system) would react to something like an unannounced fruit juice. My results have to be influenced by my diet to some extent. Fruit juice is something I don’t consume much of. And …
I’ve done articles like this in the past, comparing my clinical results over the years. But I’ve just hit what feels like another milestone, so I’m going to re-do it using my current reporting tools. I’m going to show data from four points in time: 2017, when I’d only recently started using an Automated Insulin …
