*sigh* Increased basals

Danielle's sugar's have been all over the place lately, from normal, to just under 200 to sky high. After increasing her basal rates and still fighting morning ketones, the dr. gave us increases in all her basals, ratios, etc. Hopefully this will help. We think she is developing an insulin resistance due to hormone levels. We are up to 54u of TDD for basal. I knew this was coming, and I'm sure we'll go higher before it's all over and done with too.

We're also finding that her infusion site needs to be changed every 2 days instead of every 3. She seems to start seeing much higher numbers on day 3.
