Up after showering and other doubts

Good night to everyone!I have some doubts that surely those who have a lot of experience with a bomb can be answered.I have observed that on several occasions- in almost all for what I am seeing- my daughter's high glycemia coincides, in principle not attributable to another cause, with having previously disconnected half a horile to take a shower.Call the educator nurse to comment, and advised me to perform a canula filling in empty, to purge, since sometimes a little air enters.He also told me that he can try to calculate the corresponding basal amount that he would have during that half hour and manage it in Bolo before showering to have a fair effect during that half hour in which he would not have anything basal ... Vosotr@sHow do you do it?And another doubt that I have is the following: really, when does basal insulin begin to take effect?I mean, for example, when a hiccup is programmed a 0% temporal basal for half an hour.But really, when the hypo is having, in your body you are already acting the insulin of the previous half hour ... with which this half hour scheduled to zero percent will happen half an hour after the hiccOnce the blood glucose with the diabalance increased, having no insulin acting in the body, I do not descend again ... I explain fatal, I know ... well I follow that I have already taken run.Another doubt: and when you want to modify the insulin of a given section, let's put between six in the afternoon and nine in the afternoon ... Since the moment we must program the basal rhythm to act in that specific section?From an hour before, an hour and a half, two hours?I'm finding different opinions, but your experience, what tells you?A hug and sorry for the rollete: \ "& GT;

To see the pump works only quickly depending on where you put a catheter and each person is a different world but since it is injected until it can take effect, half an hour may have spent.
The bombs do not inject the basal in the same way, this must be confirmed with a bomb technician rather than a commercial.Animas injects you, I think the proportional part is every 5 min to reach the set to the amount set.
There are bombs that put the basal of the hour suddenly, so at the time of the shower it is very important that you know this.
Regarding cutting the insulin into the pump in a hypo I understand what you say, the insulin that short will be the one that takes effect at half an hour of having injected, so if it has a hypo and you correct with a juice, at half an hourShe will be well and you will put the pump again so her body will be half an hour without insulin and this will also cause a small climb.To see hip at 18 short pump and take juice, at 18.30 it is fine and connect bomb, because that half hour will move to later without insu when it is fine, this topic is much discussed.

When I see that I have to correct basal it is because it is high before the shots especially, which for me is 130, so I put the correction an hour before.
For the issue of training I have to vary it often since if they are very continuous it shows a lot in the basal.

Before a training I reduce the basal one hour before up to 80 %.Depending on the training the subsequent reduction is different.The last length that made it 180 km by bicycle forgot to reduce more time than usual and reached 69 before dinner, then I already put on a bolus lower than the necessary at dinner and take quantity HC slow absorption.

Forgive a small correction I reduce an hour before and those figures if it is for sport.If it is for another situation, perhaps half an hour before and less clear reduction, for example a middle ride.Also depending on the previous food intake as it was, if it was Paella for example I have nothing.
This is to write a book because we are also a world

@Ainhoa ​​I use Roche's combo and I recognize that the same doubts you have.Now I never stop the basal with hypos, except a day that came down to 45 and I was exercising and dropped to 10% until they go back, but as each one tells you we are different.
In my case also inject every 3min the part that touches, and I do not use much basal so I do not use much up to stop, but just in case I try to shower before any meal or after exercise.If something goes up, I correct when I eat and if I did that, that is going down.
If I have to modify dose because it is repeated that it always goes up at a specific hour, I modify the previous time, but as it takes to act the insulin as they told me in the hospital.
I also do not carry so much with a bomb and I talk to you about my way of doing and sometimes I still make mistakes, but here in the forum there are authentic experts
