Hooray for Accuracy!

I just uploaded the data from my last week of CGM readings on the CareLink website and to my surprise my average sensor reading was equivalent to my most recent A1c result! What that means is my sense was actually pretty accurate, which is always a good thing. It was my best sensor (in terms of accuracy) yet. The only problem was that they usually last 10 days but this one crapped out after 6. It's like it put too much effort into those good readings and burnt itself out, those things have minds of their own I swear. Anyway, from the data i concluded that i need to do some serious basil rate checking in the afternoons. Every single afternoon reading was high. Either that or I (every single day?) don't cover my lunch carbs well enough, or I need to do a Insulin:Carb ration change for lunch time. Not sure what it is, so as always the place to start is basil checking....UGH. Here's one of my secrets, I hate basil rate checking more than ANYTHING else in diabetesland, by a freaking landslide. ....well here goes...
