Will anyone please give me details, I guess in baby talk, hahah, b/c
I’m not understanding what I “googled”. I had a cde "go through it"
with me, and sure was “a quick one”. I tried to do this myself. Why does it run
longer than the time I put it for? (3 hours, ran close to 5)? Why does
it do the 1/2 I set it for & just stay showing on the screen the 2nd 1/2,
but not deliver the 2nd right then? My numbers stayed more stable, so
good, but I’d like to understand what I’m doing, why, and how
Thank you!
The general rule of thumb is insulin (humalog) peaks in activity 2 hours after the bolus. Therefore if you dual wave with the extended bolus lasting for 1 hour then, 3 hours after your meal you will see the of your peak from the extended bolus.
