I have been having problems with my sugars post lunch for the past few months. I did a fasting bloods from 12pm - 4pm my sugars were perfect 5.2 - 5.6. my diabetic team have told me to give my insulin 15-20 mins before I eat or try extending my insulin over a 15 minutes time frame before eating. Nothing is stopping my sugars from rising up to 14 an hour and a half after eating.
My carb ratio is currently 1 unit to 11g of carbs. My diabetic team are not happy about me changing my carb ratio too much as when they calculate what my ratio should be it comes out as 1:15g.
I did try having my insulin an hour before eating, my sugars were stable ( freestyle libre graph showed this ) but yet again 1 1/2 hours after eating my sugars peaked in the mid teens.
Having tried everything my team have told me I at a complete loss as to what to do, any ideas?
