I was wondering if your body fat percentage decreases and you use a insulin pump, will you find yourself not getting good absorption? I know that insulin sensitivity will be better theoretically but if you are 5 to 10 percent body fat or less, less fat means the insulin would not metabolize as well or do I have it wrong? The reasons why I ask as I get more muscle I’m running out of places for my pump and my bgs are runner high than they use to. Could this be a muscle vs. fat issue or not all. If so, where do you inject?
Insulin absorbs better in muscle tissue than in fat. The problem is not absorption, it is finding a comfortable place to put the pump infusion. You can put it in muscle tissue, but it is not comfortable.
