I'm coming up for 5 months of diagnosis now, and largely have had things under control. Last week I was struggling with being low ~4 hours after meals, which I put down to my period (sorry guys...). Having come off, my levels largely returned to normal, except I was consistently going high in the evenings. To counteract this I put my ratio down from 1:18->1:15 in the evening and voila - 7.8mmol before bed last night, great! However, today I've found myself yet again going low a few hours after my meals, for no apparent reason. So the carb ratios are going back up, again! I have exams in a week and this is completely stressing me out. Perhaps that has something to do with it? I'm not sure anyone will be able to offer me much advice, since my body seems to love surprising me at the moment, but it would be great to know if anyone else went through this when they were (relatively) newly diagnosed?
