TuDiabetes - A Community for People Touched by Diabetes

All the sudden the past week I've been high no matter what I did, even after correction boluses. The first day thought it was stress b/c I had eye surgery but we are coming up on six days and no change.
I up'ed all my basal rates by .5 and now seem to be doing better but I don't understand the sudden need for more insulin.
This isn't due to pod placement either, that much I have ruled out and my weight is the same as it has been for awhile now. Just confused, wondering if anyone else has had the same issue??
Thanks Everyone!!

Have you tried using a different bottle of insulin? Sometimes a bottle can go bad and become less effective (or not effective at all).

I just got a new bottle today, have to change my pod tonight so we'll see what happens!
