Are you Type 1 or Type 2? And how flat a line are you talking about? I read that about spikes lately and have been trying to avoid them more. Just in case!I'm no expert but from what i've been lead to believe is if you allow yourself to spike every meal (i.e. over 8 mmol) consistently then you're at risk for some complications eventually.
I try and keep my blood sugar 'flat lining' at all times, with low carb , careful carb counting or smaller meals it's achievable. Maybe what I have read is inaccurate to a certain degree ,but who wants to put it to the test ?
But years ago I told my endo that I was sometimes spiking after exercise, and he said not to give up exercise because of the spikes. I wonder what he'd say now?
