oops
Had a bit of a scare yesterday…
Went to a baseball game, got hot and sweaty and my infusion set pulled out w/out me knowing about it. I pigged out on all the game food, a couple hot dogs, some cotton candy and lemonade, bolusing for each not knowing I wasn’t getting any insulin into me. The end result….508. I changed my infusion set and it came down nicely…but kinda freaked me out…..no time for DKA.

Oh, man! Glad you’re okay now. How was the game? I hope everything else is going well!

Jenny!
Despite your infusion set “oops,”, you sound like you are doing great! How is everything going otherwise? I can ‘hear’ the positive in your ‘voice.’ I am happy for you. So, who won the game, or don’t you have a clue? (Just here for the dogs.) : )
Warm regards,

Don’t you hate it when that Happens? That has happened to me a few times. Once I forgot to put my pump back on after my shower. I realized it after a few hours. Needless to say, my sugar was sky high.
