Topic: DAFNE Online Mobile / BG Average Algorithm

Hi,

I assume this is a question for Simon, but posting for others to see / answer / chip in.

I have noticed that the BG average on the website is giving a 7 day average of 9.4 ( I know this is not good Sad

), but the iPhone app is giving 9.7. Are the maths not the same on the iPhone or is this due to the iPhone also giving break/lunch/dinner/bed averages too, rounding error from using the 4 averages to work out the total average?

The 4 separate break/lunch/dinner/bed averages might be nice on the website for none iPhone users, it helps show when in the day I'm having issues, suppose on the the graphs show this though.

Its not an issue, just wondered? As a developer I tend to spot these things, it makes me feel better when there are wrinkles in other sites too Very Happy

Topic: Carbohydrate Counting / new to carb counting

Hi and welcome to the site................

Getting to grips with carb counting is fairly straight forward fortunately, its getting that right alongside dose changes etc that can be tricky............

The first thing to do is test your background insulin dose, firstly overnight, and then during the day..........you do this by omitting carbs and insulin for a period of 5 hours roughly, so miss a meal or go carb free, this will let you know if its right or wrong, allowing you to adjust it up or down depending on the outcome. Then and only then can you start to think about insulin/carb ratios with your novorapid........

A discussion with your team would be advisable.......

your results don't have any noticeable pattern, which can be expected, but its clear your putting in the effort, so well done........

Hi simon . Works fine now thank you.

Something I did notice with the pdf is that it only shows 2 days worth of results per page. Is it possible to make it 7 ?

Just a suggestion

Thanks andy

Hi Stew,

You won't have to delete them, you might have to go into one of the entries and save it again that will trigger the upload again.

Hi jonopesda,

Welcome!

Firstly, please, please make sure you always have a bottle of Lucozade with you up on the roof, and when you are going up and down the ladder.

Secondly, I wonder if your ratios are right, particularly at lunch and dinner.

Thirdly, perhaps you should talk to your diabetes team about whether you are on the best basal insulin. Possibly a split dose of Levemir might be better.

Do remember to change only one thing at a time, and by small amounts. But check with your team first.

Best of luck!

I got a similar message a few minutes ago when I transfered my DAFNE diary entries for the last couple of days to the website using my iPhone 4s. I carried on regardless, so there are about 10 entries sitting on the phone which don't appear in the on-line diary. Assuming that being patient (not a strong point of mine) works, will the records upload or will I have to delete them from the iphone and enter them again?

Update on current progress following on from previous post... Starting to feel again that BI adjustments... be it times or doses adjustements... may be in order still. Planning to put Morning BI up again from 11 to 13... but want to check with DAFNE team and offer here the chance to comment as well.

Saw the hosp doctor on friday... unsure what to advise for me, insulin wise. Frustrated.
Thanks in advance for any helpful responses.

Hi Phil/All,

We moved our servers yesterday - this requires us to 'tell the Internet' where dafneonline.co.uk is and this can take up to 48 hours to propagate across the whole of the Web. Keep on trying - if this persists for another 24 hours then let us know.

Hi,

Is this related?

I am using the iPhone app (version 1.5.2 on iPhone 4 with iOS5.1) for my results and this morning (Mon 23rd April) it keeps moaning that my DAFNE Online credentials are incorrect, they have not changed, I have tried reentering them on the iPhone in case there was a time limit or something.

I can log in fine on the website, is the webservice down or moved?

Thanks

Hi Andrew,

Could you let us know when you tried to upload your results, and which phone you are using to do it?

Over the past 24 hours we have been moving our servers so there may be a few hiccups - also feel free to try the upload again.

Thanks,

Simon

Topic: Site Development / pdf diary downloads

Hi Andrew,

Looking at our error logs the issue is that the diary you are trying to print it too big horizontally, could you let me know the maximum number of diary entries you have in any day in the date range you're trying to print?

This will help us greatly to fix the problem.

Thanks,

Simon
