Thanks for your comment.

Normally I wouldn't start a run with a BG at 376, but I was in Maui, paid a lot of money to get there, trained diligently, felt good, so . . . I wasn't ready to back out.

If I'm that high before a training run I'll usually wait until I come down under 200 or skip it altogether. Usually. I have started that high before with mixed results - sometimes dropping and sometimes ending up in DKA.

Thought I'd let you know I created a TAG group here at TU. Since you were very active in my dual wave bolus discussion, I thought you might want to check it out.

Be well!

I wanted to thank you again for posting the information regarding the Spring Briefing last night in Needham. My husband Mike and I enjoyed talking to you and meeting the pumpers group. I thought the talk was very interesting and hope to make it an annual meeting that we go to. Thanks again. Talk to you soon.
