Hi, me again, sorry to be a pain :P
I noticed that when I have a blood sugar level of 65 or below, I don't get a insulin/BE suggestion from SiDiary.
If I change the value to 66 or above, I instantly start getting the suggestion from SiDiary again.
I tried playing around with the BG-Target in my profile, but it didn't make any difference.
Is this normal? or have I missed something in the settings?
Thanks again,
Matt

Hi Matt,
that's a hardcoded limit for the bolus suggestion "safeguarding". Below from 65 most people are already or are at least close to a hypo.
Depending to the skills of the user (imagine a recently diagnosed rookie) a bolus suggestion for let's say Mövenpick ice-cream :zwinker: with lots of fat covered by Humalog would be really critical in such situation... ;)
Best, Alf.

Hi Alf,
Yes I see what you mean, and its a good idea.
I'm still a rookie (diagnosed 10 months ago), so I forgot that if I ate something fatty then my blood sugar rises slower than for "less" fatty foods.
Thanks for the quick answer -great support! I bought SiDiary on Saturday and I'm really happy with it.
best regards
Matt
