Thanks Lindarose, it does like to play with me though, let's me think the insulin is all just right then bang it's off again 🙂. It punished me for eating a white bread roll yesterday with a stunning 9.8, good job I only eat white bread under threat of extreme hunger 🙄

Mine were a bit choppy for three days, but not sure if that was the flu jab or the allergic reaction to the pneumonia jab, but I think I read on DUK website that it can cause choppiness 🙄

Sometimes the hunger takes over (or in my case the desperate 'need' for something naughty!) But the meter never let's us get away with it no matter how discreetly it's eaten!

7.3 which is good for me. Starting to see a decrease in morning numbers with the pump

Hi 🙂 24.0 on waking
- bedtime - 2322 - 6.2
- because I was 6.2 at bedtime & lower than bedtime target of 8 - 12 I ate 40g of carbs with no bolus but maybe I should've had some bolus for this amount of carbs
- teatime - 1922 - 6.4
- ate 2x slices of ham at 2214

Split my BI on Wed 15/10
- was having 14u at nightime
- now having 7u at 10pm then 7u at 10am

I think it might Bloden because I had higher than normal BGs for six days after my flu jab - at the time I thought they were because of stress but then realised that they coincided with having had the flu jab.

We're all different Gill but if I was 6.2 and then had 40g of carbs my BG would have gone up to 18 plus i.e. up 3 for each 10g of carb

 

[AJLang]

A nice 4.2 for me this morning🙂

Hey Gill
If I wanted to bump a 6.2 up to about 8ish (assuming you're happy being at the lower end of your range) I'd go for about 10g of carb, possibly 15 but I have a high carb tolerance in the evening for some bizarre reason. So something like two or three oatcakes with nut butter would do it. I don't eat in the evening really unless I've managed to get myself too low after dinner, then I top up to get myself in the right range, along with my carb superpowers in the evening I'm very sensitive to insulin, so any insulin after 8pm is like an extreme sport 😱 I have done some tinkering with dinner ratios though to get me a bit higher after dinner, so maybe you should discuss it with your nurse?

6.2 at 5.30am but then 3.4 at 7.15am
