[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1145928, member: 41816"] Couple of things - that drop into the 2s could not be a bg drop at all. It may simply have been that you were lying on the sensor, and the circulation to the back of your arm was reduced. I would wait to see if it ever repeats before drawing any conclusions. Plus, really, looking at your blood glucose readings... they look kind of normal to me, to be honest. I am not seeing reactive hypoglycaemia, as I understand it. Although I have only really seen a few RH glucose curves. Your sharp rise and drop on Wed evening starts and ends at roughly the same level. In fact, they all do. If it was a RHypo I would expect it to drop lower than your starting point. Although, of course, much depends on what you ate. You wouldn't expect an RHypo unless you had carbs to trigger it. I certainly don't get RHypos unless I eat the wrong stuff. The rest of the time I have peaks that drop to around the starting point too. What did you eat? Not sure if you can remember, but the pics I have posted of my RH reactions have always started at (say 5.5) peaked, and then dropped to significantly below 5.5. At which point I eat to stop the drop. You seem to be returning to your starting point and evening out. Do you snack at that point? I do think that your peaks are [B][I]sometimes[/I][/B] slower to rise than to fall, which is interesting, because most glucose curves are the other way round - fast to rise and slower to drop after. So, what and when did you eat, and when did you have your wobbly ill feelings in relationship to those curves? And have you tested any interesting/challenging foods yet? [/QUOTE]
