Exercise really IS good for you!

I read an article in Gary Scheiner’s newsletter about a study showing that mini doses of glucagon before exercise worked better than eating carbs or suspending basal for preventing hypoglycemia without rebounding too high. I’m finding exercise such a challenge because it’s interspersed throughout my day and isn’t always predictable with all the other daily variables added in. Set exercise sessions are simple in comparison. I would love to have stable liquid glucagon in a spare pump (or even one of those “bolus only” pumps that are patch pumps that allow for boluses in two-unit increments designed for people with Type 2, if such a thing is on the market) that I could bolus five minutes before an activity to prevent a low!!!
