Group 7-day waking average?

Hello everyone 🙂

19.9 - bedtime
20.6 - this morning for me 😡

- meal (indian - plain prawn curry/pilau rice) & night out, also with 3 or 4 beers then 2 spirits & diet pepsi
- 3.0 @ 19.36pm - treated with 4 jelly babies
- 4.7 @ 1948pm - meal but injected after eating
- 19.9 @ 00.03am - no correction done as i don't like doing corrections before going to bed to sleep
- 20.6 @ 0536am - 3u correction - would normally do more correction than this but was going back to sleep
- 10.0 @ 10.39am - omelette & bread for breakfast plus QA done for carbs. Correction also done


.....jeez Gill! those sort of highs wipe me out! That is a high 2 hour post prandial, did you count the carbs? If so your carb insulin ratio is way off.....I always found indian food, rice,nan etc very tricky on MDI and I used to split my injection half up front and and half an hour after I've eaten plus 10 or 20 %. Why did you not correct that bedtime high? looks like your lantus is about right though judged on your morning high!
 
8.6 for me :( although 4.2 yday and 4.7 saturday
 
Good morning everyone 🙂

6.4 - bedtime
5.6 - this morning for me 🙂
 
7.1 yesterday and 7.0 on the nose this morning, with a high yesterday of 11.9. Got a cold though, so maybe that's why.
 
3.4 for me....must have overdone the bolus last night, had a massive insulin fest with pizza followed by rhubarb crumble and custard!
