- I read your comment in the discussion about Lantus. I switched to Levemir last july and after a hard summer with highs and lows because I worked too much, it seems that this insulin is better than Lantus. I have one shot at 7 in the morning of 10 units of Levemir and after I made shots at meals with Apidra (4 or 5 units) but I think I must put less Apidra at dinner because I've low 3 or 4 hours after. Do you eat more than 3 times a day?

Greg said… - Hey Tony! I think I am recovered from DTC now. It was nice to meet you there and do some riding.
I read your posts here about choosing a CGM. You might remember that I use the Freestyle Navigator (Abbott) and put the transmitter on the back of my arm. The receiver is pretty big so I have to put it in the back of my jersey pocket. I know a guy who uses the Dex (also back of the arm) and he clips the receiver to a 'suspender' of his bib shorts when cycling so he can look down and see it easily. I'm not that obsessive about it. I agree that it would be nice to have the CGM mounted on the handlebars like a bike computer, or integrated with a Garmin GPS or something.

Tim P said… - Hi Anthony
Yes, I do a fair bit of riding. If you are looking at doing the 2 man RAAM you may want to talk to one of my Team Type 1 teammates, Adam Driscoll. Adam lives just outside DC and won the 2 man category this year. Feel free to hit me with any questions you may have.
