Is this STABLE program the same as on here :<<
http://www.stableprogram.org/>> ? It mentions using blood glucose as part of
the evaluation, but does not give the cutoff. It seems if decreasing
tolerance for hypoglycemia was so important, it would be more of a
universal, and not a program, guideline.

Best wishes,
Sam Doak

I would love to hear about this "new cutoff " as well as we just looked at
our policy and 40 is still our cutoff for supplementation.
