So I'm late 30's and type 1 just over a year now. Mdi and bloods usually controlled between 5 & 10 mmol/L.
Yesterday I had lunch at 12:30, bloods were 5.7 pre food and at 4pm they were 7.9 (not quite enough insulin I know but drive at 4pm each day).
Went home and by 4:45pm I was hypo at 3.5mmol.
I don't understand the hypo though as I shouldn't have any insulin onboard over 4hrs after my novarapid shot for lunch, and I didn't over exert myself to bring bloods down. Dropping from 7.9 to 3.5 within 45mins for no explanation has me confused?
