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
