I agree completely. Also would any of us consider that spike after eating to 300 as a severe hyperglycemia. I am curious did Minimed present data of what the glucose graph would look like for a non-diabetic individual? I guess I would like to see what my son's curves would like so we can determine whether we are using the right mix of insulin. But how much does that tell us if we don't know what the exact time to action of each insulin is for our child. Do we need to do precise pharmacokinetics which each insulin so the computer can give us the precise dose of medicine along with the precise amount of food one can eat. All the more reason to find the cure for diabetes.
