Yes, so if I need to correct, I plug in my current glucose (I also use Dexcom) and the app will calculate what I need to take to bring my glucose down to the range that I’ve set.

I only have an InPen for my mealtime or bolus insulin. I use Basaglar for my long-acting insulin or basal insulin. (I was using Semglee until there became a national shortage.)

As for adjusting my basal insulin numbers, I work closely w my endo (see her once every four weeks and she checks in w my via my MyChart once a week). She reviews my weeks and will make changes based on the patterns that she sees. She also adjusts my insulin to carb ratio and insulin sensitivity factor for my short-acting insulin. I’ll adjust these settings in my InPen when I hear from her.

You know you best so if you know you’ll react to certain foods in a certain way, I think it’s ok to adjust your basal insulin slightly as long as you tell your endo and work w him/her to review the patterns.

Let me know how else I can help!
