carb/insulin ratios
Hi team at Glucose Buddy (Tom Xu, Jeff Neitzel, Bruce Maultasch, Doug Brownstone, Rick Davies, Chris Davies)
Thank you so very much for the work and creativity you have put into Glucose Buddy. My youngest (Kaitlyn age 3) has type one diabetes since just before turning 2. I only came across your app on iPod this Christmas just been and I LOVE it!!! This has truly been the best tool I have to assist me in the very heavy load of caring for my beautiful little girl and I am very grateful! I live in New Zealand (little island at bottom of map... not a part of Australia lol) and no one in the diabetes medical team new about Glucose Buddy or any similar apps. This morning I met with our medical team – 3 doctors, 2 nurses and 2 nutritionists to introduce them to Glucose Buddy! They were impressed They have one suggestion that I am putting forward and asking for your assistance on: Is there any possibility that the data could be organised in columns of meal times – breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, supper. This is to assist in calculating carb/insulin ratios as they differ across the day and are set from trends comparing the previous weeks breakfasts, then lunch, then dinner – before and after levels. Have you seen any of the diabetes log books (paper)? They are laid out that way which make trends easier to calculate into ratios. The information would not have to be displayed this way on the iPod – just be available on her online data base to assist the me and my team. I hope the request is no too confusing – please email with any questions and let me know if there is a possibility to proceed toward this. Kind regards Angela (littleprincess) PS - I have emailed a possible format for reporting this data - tried to upload the template here but it exeeds the allowed size. |
