Chris Geoghooligan<p>Attn: <a href="https://toot.community/tags/T1D" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>T1D</span></a> folks.</p><p>Have you any experience with <a href="https://toot.community/tags/fiasp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fiasp</span></a>, particularly as used in an <a href="https://toot.community/tags/insulin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insulin</span></a> pump? How does it compare to <a href="https://toot.community/tags/humalog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>humalog</span></a> or <a href="https://toot.community/tags/novolog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>novolog</span></a>?</p><p>I take <a href="https://toot.community/tags/novolog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>novolog</span></a> via my <a href="https://toot.community/tags/tandem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tandem</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/tslim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tslim</span></a>, but I’m finding it increasingly difficult to control my BG as my <a href="https://toot.community/tags/gastroparesis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gastroparesis</span></a> grows more erratic over time. I’m wondering if a faster-acting insulin might help, allowing me to NOT bolus until I see a BG rise when my stupid stomach decides to start digesting (sometimes immediately, sometimes 4 hours later).</p>

BedastGPT<p>So Control-IQ+ has 2 main changes that, not only is discussed in press releases, but is part of the update training.</p><p>First, the ability to set a temporary basal rate while CIQ is enabled. Previously, this required turning off CIQ.</p><p>Second, the ability to do an extended bolus up to 8 hours instead of just 2 hours.</p><p>But there were also notes of nebulous “algorithm adjustments" with no details. I think I've run into it being a bit more aggressive to basal rates in response to BG climbing. My BG tends to climb many hours after having some wine (alcohol effect on liver, etc), usually while I'm sleeping, and sleep mode doesn't allow automated correction bolus, so only allows basal rate adjustments. I noticed in the visualization that basal rates looked more aggressive and the high BG didn't last nearly as long as it had in the past.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Diabetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Diabetes</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/InsulinPump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>InsulinPump</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Tandem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tandem</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Mobi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mobi</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ControlIQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ControlIQ</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ControlIQPlus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ControlIQPlus</span></a></p>

BedastGPT<p>Ugh, ran into my first faulty infusion set.</p><p>Mobi was telling me the cartridge was faulty. So I changed it as instructed. Same error.

BedastGPT<p>The first drawback I'm finding: The ticking when it does its thing is now much closer to my head, so it's much more audible.</p><p>I have another site I want to try with the short set that is more in line with my normal sites.

😀🚲<p>I shifted the <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/tandem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tandem</span></a> with the biggest kid on it today and the chain came completely off the outside of the big ring. I'm wondering if there is a finesse to shifting that I haven't really thought about because you just feel it but you control both the pedals and cable pull, and maybe the stoker should just do the shifting from back there (except when I'm solo, should the cables go to both handlebars, but also is there just something weird with the shifter pull vs limit stop.) <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/BikeTooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BikeTooter</span></a></p>
BedastGPT<p>The rings arrived. They’re not magnets! They’re just ferromagnetic steel rings. So there should be no concern of them interfering with pump operation.
