Keeping track of all the numbers involved in diabetes management can be a full-time job! Our CWD family knows how important it is to stay on top of everything from blood sugars to carb ratios, and we make a point to document that information often.
According to this week's poll, the vast majority of the CWD community is keeping their insulin ratios and pump information documented in a few different places, from writing things down on paper to using an app to keep track. It's important to have a solid back-up plan in place in the event that technology takes an unexpected vacation, so be sure to write those ratios down, snap a picture of your pump settings on your smart phone, or text that information to a family member (or to yourself).
