[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 1054326, member: 44622"] There is no definition of a spike that I know of and it really just means that your sugar level went up and went down again. On a graph it's far more likely to look like a bump than a spike. Each person sets a target level that they would like to stay below. Some use the official figure of 8.5 and some set more stringent targets for themselves. It's more a question of whether or not the "spike" exceeds the limit you have set for yourself. If it does then examine what you ate or drank to cause it and try not to do it again. [/QUOTE]
