Yes, I believe so. Higher carb with fat. I think in addition to the basal adjustment he just made, he needs to inject some upfront, and then use an extended bolus over the course of, like, six hours. Because it’s really in the middle of the night that it’s an issue. I need to pull the data and look at it, but December is busy running me over. 😄
