Its one of the ridiculous things about living with a chronic illness like diabetes, which sometimes simply does not follow the supposed rules its supposed to. If there is a bright spot to any of this is that you're experienced and knew how to handle it pretty well. When I was pumping, I went right to an injection to make sure I wasn't dealing with any kind weird kind of infusion problem. The point is you handled it like a pro (actually, better than a pro since I think may CDEs would probably flip out if something like this happened).Scott Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03286529314567223617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-73307620729445092522013-08-14T10:54:24.598-04:002013-08-14T10:54:24.598-04:00I just finished reading Karen's post about her...I just finished reading Karen's post about her low and taking glucagon and now I read about your high and ketones. Crikey! I'm sorry and I'm impressed at how well you handled this.

But I'm so proud of how you handled it, and I hope it's a good long time before the ketones ever make another visit.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853213615426205881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-30942803049118494692013-08-14T06:21:52.545-04:002013-08-14T06:21:52.545-04:00I actually just blogged about this myself.

What I always find frustrating over instances like this is that usually you never know why it happened. <br /><br />I had a day like this recently. I didn't feel at all nauseous until I saw the purple pee strip. Then major yuk! Before it was over I had used two new infusion sets, a new reservoir, a new vial of insulin, and a hefty injection. Still don't know what the culprit was.Laddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02212090322026085867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9175362385039466640.post-6619250271779709172013-08-12T14:10:26.054-04:002013-08-12T14:10:26.054-04:00wonderful I shared on FBwonderful I shared on FBCallie Robertsnoreply@blogger.com
