      If you do NOT use a CGM, on average how many times per day do you check your blood glucose levels?
      I answered N/A, like most of us here(apparently) I have a CGM. But for the record, I haven't quite cut the cord on finger sticks. Routinely I do one first thing in the a.m., just to check that my f-s and CGM numbers reasonably match up. That time of day seems to be when they're most likely to have drifted apart--yay Dawn Phenomenon. Dexcom much better than Medtronic Guardian 3 on this but still a bit of a problem. And the first 24-36 hrs of a new sensor, especially if I haven't been able to do a "pre-soak," may get me up to 3-4 finger sticks depending on how erratic it's being. Might be a natural follow in this series to do a Q of the Day on how many fingersticks people do who ARE using a CGM.

      I use a CGM and STILL check an average of 7 times per day with BG meter because despite the advertising claims, I have yet to find a CGM that is consistently accurate enough to rely on for various tasks including meal Bolus dose calculations. Currently using Dexcom G6 with tSlim Control IQ, along with Dario BG meter I trust more than Dexcom.

      I am curious. Do you routinely check the control glucose solution to be sure the meter is accurate?

      In the past 24 hours, how many times has your blood glucose risen above 180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L)? (For this question, we are looking at separate periods of hyperglycemia, rather than consecutive glucose readings above 180 mg/dL.)
      My infusion site stopped working well. Most of my problems going high are due to problems with infusion set. Another problem is my slow processing of my dinner. If I bolus too fast I go low, if I wait a bit I go high. It’s a nightmare

      Yesterday I walked 30 miles. At about 10 miles I went 200 something. I took 20g of carbs at about 120 to prevent going low and ended up at 200 even though I continued to walk. Took a correction and my bg dropped more than I wanted. It is a trick to manage bg during long endurance events. My endocrinologist suggested a profile for me which I was trying for the first time. I will be walking for 24 continuous hours hoping for about 70 miles. The event is outrun 24 at Chapin Forest in Kirtland Ohio.

      I use a CGM and my BG went over 180 seven times. Not unusual for BG go to 200+ after eating, then comes down. Yesterday and today my average BG was 150.

      My "high" alarm is 130. When I hit that I consider: when I ate; could I have screwed up the bolus; what am I doing or will be doing; when I'll eat next. Rarely go over 150-160, by reacting and preventing highs found I actually use less insulin than just correct when it peaks....could never do this without a CGM I'm comfortable with, although with pens and an unmoving basel more fun (can't make fast adjustments for food, stress, heat, or activity). So the past several days zero over 180, just a few over 150.

      With Tandem CIQ, I get <2% in hypo range, rare at night, and when I do it is usually my fault- over bolusing for food, or exercise. Love this system

      It's been an unusual 24 hours for me and I haven't gone below 70 at all. (If I'd a been asked last week, totally different answer!) :p But, I'm doing really great today. So... Yay! :D

      The food we choose to eat as people with T1D is so personal, and each food impacts every person differently. What foods do you prefer to eat for your first meal of the day? Share what works for you in the comments!
      I follow my wife’s old adage, “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen, and dinner like a pauper.” And in a very king-like fashion and since I am retired, I do it most mornings in a very leisurely 3 or 4 fashion. The best breakfasts, by far, are those you have with delightful conversationalists with people of wide-ranging interests. I start with 2 or 3 cups of strong, dark-roast black coffee, nursed liked an expensive cocktail rather than gulped. Then come berries—raspberries, black berries, blue berries, and a complete box of strawberries, followed by protein potions of turkey peperoni slices or an egg or two. The cereal consumed is a mix of three-Uncle Sam’s mixed with Grape Nuts mixed with All Bran. Either milk or yogurt is used to top the cereal. I know not the calories, but the carbs I can count down to the first decimal point. And decidedly, the meal’s main attributes are the time spent and the conversations.

      With the Libre, once I’ve acknowledged an alert it doesn’t alarm again unless my blood sugar has crossed over the threshold a second time. So if it alarms at 300, drops to 290 and rises to 300 again, it will alarm again. If it alarms at 300 and continues to rise to 400, it won’t alarm again.

      I acknowledge the high alert and observe IOB vs bg and food intake and act accordingly.
      By noticing the times my bgs are continuously high is when I alter the basal. And I’m careful about not running my bgs into the ground!!!

      I have no idea!
      I receive alerts when my blood sugar is above the target range and acknowledge it, but don’t know if it is repeating the alert or if it is alerting me again at a “new time” because my sugar is high.

      It will alarm, I acknowledge and take insulin and BS goes down a few points. Then it goes back up a few points minutes later and it alarms again. Frustrating but better than no alerts ever!

      The response options are poorly worded with overlapping categories, e.g., 1-1.5, 1.5-2, etc. This is a problem I have observed in other questions. 😳

      I have my Dexcom G6 high and low alerts set to NOT repeat but they do anyway. I also have the sound off and vibrate only but even after acknowledging a low and treating it sometimes my t:slim pump goes into panic mode and won’t quiet down (STFU).

      If I don’t acknowledge, it repeats every few minutes until I do. I haven’t ever timed it. When I do acknowledge it, I have it set to repeat in an hour. I think if it goes below the high threshold and then back up, it is a new alarm that goes off when it happens, not after the delay.

      I am on Dexcom for about a month now. The diabetes educator set up my alerts but I am not sure that I am liking her recommendations She has my low set at 90 (which happens to be normal) and my high set at 250 (which is when I normally start vomiting) Pre CBGM I always set my pump to 70-99 as my range. Can anybody share what their CBGM’s normal/abnormal range is? I feel like I haven’t slept since I started the CBGM. Hopefully, once I can get the Omnipod 5 system I will be able to get some sleep. Any suggestions from other T1Ds would be greatly appreciated.

        Elysse – can you go back to the educator and tell her how much trouble you are having? Or, even ask her to explain why she set your levels at low = 90 and high = 250?
        You should be able to change the alarms yourself. But, because you are new to the technology, I think it would be great to have the nurse help you through it.
        You may need a higher low alarm than others because of hypoglycemia unawareness or other issues. And, my levels may not work for you. But, I will say that my low and high alarms are a bit lower than yours.
        The one that concerns me for you is the high… if you are vomiting by the time the system is trying to alert you, it is set to high, IMHO! Just my opinion. But, definitely something to talk to your doctor and/or nurse about!!

      On the Dex G6 high alarms sound every half second. The high is set to alarm at 250. Even though I acknowledge the alarm and take a correction, it will alarm again within 30 minutes. Novolog doesn’t work that fast. Stacking doses only results in lows 3 hours later. The 250 level for high alerts was set by my Endo when I first started using the Tandem pump. She set it in response to my desire to personalize the alert level. It’s not a good solution.

        Are you a Tandem tslim pump user? If so, have you tried going to My CGM/ CGM Alerts/ High and Low/ High Alert and then adjusting your Repeat setting? Has several options from Never, 15min to 5hrs. I have mine set to repeat at 2hrs to give time for correction bolus to take effect. Imperfect, but it has helped.

      I set alarms on my FSL to not repeat. I set high alert at 150 so I can decide early on if need correction bolus or not.

      My high alerts repeats at 2 hours. Need to let correction bolus time to work but want to stay on top of the high to determine if it’sa calculation error or a site issue.

      Like others, for the G6, if the alarm goes off for a high, I can give insulin. But, if the reading goes down because of the insulin action or just because it has a variability factor of say +/- 20 (ish… I’m not sure what the real variability is), the number can go down after any number of minutes. Then, once it goes back up, the alarm sounds again.
      I have no repeat of the alarm set because of this quirk. The only way it doesn’t repeat the alarm on this setting is if the BS goes steadily up and up and up.
      I am trying to learn to not get irritated at the redundant alarms… or “rage bolus” because of them.

      Very irritating at times as you cannot shut it off. I have let Dexcom know but nothing has improved. Loud alert at 140. 2 minutes later a loud alert at 141! No insulin is That fast!

      My CGM does not repeat high alerts IF i acknowledge receipt of the alert. However if my BS drops below the alert level and then again exceeds that level it will provide another alert.

      I had to mark other. My cgm bugs me every 30 seconds until I respond with my pump and bolus. My pump also let’s me know how fast sugar glucose is rising. So I take a bg and make sure that cgm is correct.

      Usually I need one alert and make corrections with insulin or carbs etc.

      YES! REPEATEDLY! And it drives me crazy!! I did hear that G7 will have a snooze setting. But I’m beginning to doubt G7 is coming out in the US in my lifetime😡.

      I have a Dexcom G6 with alarms set to “never” repeat, and they generally don’t. They seem to go off again if I either don’t take any action or the trend going high is continuing in a big way or the low is calculated to continue dropping below 80.

      The dexcom will alert you every 5 minutes until you are back in range then it will stop. Very irritating!

    If you receive high alerts on your CGM, how frequently do your high alerts repeat after you acknowledge the alert? If you use different settings depending on time of day, please select the answer that corresponds to your alert setting at noon in your time zone. Cancel reply
