Another Q - when and how to handle lows - TuDiabetes
tudiabetes.org — “Hi, sorry I am asking lots of questions. What do people do when your sugar gets low? How low is low enough to be concerned with? How much do you eat / if it gets low?

Do you hyper-bolus when you're sick? - TuDiabetes
tudiabetes.org — “Hi friends, I have a bad head cold and as expected, I've had high blood sugars for the past few days. I've doubled my bolus insulin and it has almost no effect. I've gained two pounds despite not eating much (from the extra insulin? lack of exercise? water retention? ) I'm a little afraid to bolus MUCH more. I went from 14-20 U/day to 26. What do you do when you're sick? Do you just let the high blood sugars go? Should I increase my basal? Should I keep bolusing until I'm back down? Thanks, Mari” View full resource at tudiabetes.org
