Broken wrist = +20% basal insulin

My son broke his wrist at school playing soccer earlier this week.

His BG has been a bit everywhere since. But it looks like the direct impact to his basal after 48 hours is +20%.

Ouch, so sorry to hear that. Was there at least a spectacular play that he made while breaking his wrist?

Not even :slight_smile: He told me it was the lamest fall, and he’d have to work on a better story…

I also wish him a speedy recovery! Hope he’s enjoying Grenada regardless!

Thanks so much for all the good wishes! He feels better about it now, quite matter of fact. He has started running again. It makes me a bit nervous actually, because it is not smooth pavement but all cemented pebbles, and it is easy to loose your balance with a cast. But he does what he does, like @Chris’s boy :slight_smile:

Today he ran all the way up to the very top of the Albaycin (our 1,200-year old Moorish hill), to San Miguel Alto. He told me he couldn’t help but take a few minutes there to absorb the view, because it was so beautiful. This made me feel that our coming here in Granada was a good move -)
