About Me

- I'm a 20-something year old working as an RN. I'm also in graduate school obtaining my masters degree. I bought my first house just over a year ago. I'm always looking for a way to save some change!

I usually don't treat for anything above a 3.5 (63-ish) at any time. If it's below a 4.0 (72) then I generally temp my basal down by about 50% for a half an hour, depending on my active insulin and activity level.
Anything below 75 gets sugar!
Glad to see you're still around Wil.,
I treat everything below 80. I feel low in the 70s and it's almost my indicator that I'm dropping. I rarely, if ever, maintain a 75 without going down even further. I just don't feel safe being that close to a real low. I like 90s and 100s, and my target is 120, so I always aim for that. Sometimes I'll even take a swig of orange juice at an 85 if I think I might be dropping.
Olivia treats depending on how she's feeling. If she's 90 and feeling like crap, she'll have juice/glucose tabs. If she's 90 and feeling fine, we leave it alone. I let her tell me how she's feeling and how she wants to treat it when she's between 80 - 100. Anything lower than 80 will get treated.
