After my traumatic (I know i do exaggerate) high blood sugars - getting into the 15's over the last few weeks - since Sunday this week I am pleased to report:

morning bs 3.9 (s), 3.3 (m woke at 5 am in hypo then 8.7 at 7.00 am after treating hypo), 4.1 (t) & 3.9 this morn

So I can now conclude I need to reduce my evening levemir back to normal

Monday and Tuesday I had 3 units of novorapid after breakfast. Monday I was ok 5.7 2 hrs after, but Tuesday I dropped to 2.9 and I cannot believe I did this I had no orange juice or glucose tabs with me at work - which = MD running out to the shop to buy me orange juice bless her. (how stupid am I:()

So this morning I had no insulin after breakfast and was at 6.7 2 hrs after.

All my evening bs have been between 5.8 and 7.2 2 hrs after evening meal with 4 or 5 units of Novorapid back to normal yeah !! 😉
 
Glad to hear that the sugar levels have improved. You don't think this is cycle related do you? It can affect some of us more than others.

It was the nasty little contraceptive pill I was trying in the hope that it would stop pains - they are torture every month which is cruel since I cant have kids.

I'm gonna have to re visit it again tho as I need something. But defo not the pill again x
 
Waking bs was 3.2 this morning. !!
Was 3.9 before bed and then 2 slices of wholemeal toast

Maybe another insulin reduction is required 🙂
 
Glad to hear things are back to normal. I hope the other pain gets some kind of help too.

Sounds like that is what is required - its times like this when you want a punchbag or dartboard with diabetes on it.
