No context cuz I honestly don’t know

What have you eaten?

I don’t use a pump but have you checked all the connections are ok? Insulin in date?

I’ll tag a mod who does use a pump but she might not be online for a while @Nicola M

If your blood sugar keeps rising don’t be afraid to call 111 for advice.
 
In all honesty if you know you’ve done everything correctly (dosing wise for a meal) I’d give a correction and if you blood sugar doesn’t start to come down I’d do a full set change. Sometimes it’s honestly just one of those annoying things, it’ll soon come back down you may just feel a bit lousy whilst it’s up high

Not looking too bad either ][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]][emoji6][emoji6][emoji[emoji6]]]@Hoodiegirl , that's what, like [emoji[emoji6]][emoji[emoji6][emoji6]]% in range?
Do you know what caused the spike at the end?

Probably insulin didn’t go in so did a pump change but still a bit traumatised from having a zero percent in range…

I'd keep an eye on the graph, and both slower acting carbs to prevent a hypo and quick acting carbs to treat one at hand as needed.
Are you flying solo or with people around?

People around but idk …
 
Think you should call 999 for advice.

Have you given a correction dose? Do the people around know you are struggling.

Please don’t wait too long at that level before you ask for help.
 
Hi guys.
Thanks for all the advice… honestly I fell asleep crocheting again.
Anyway, much better now, dropped to one point nine at twoish in the morning but I’m still trying to get on with my day as if it hasn’t happened.
Anyway, I appreciate your concern and advice and you guys made it a little more bearable.
Super funny story:
Bcz I had a hell of a night, I wake up six am and decide to make myself a cup of coffee… I instantly spit it out because it’s disgusting and honestly wonder what adults see in it?

I’m glad you are ok this morning. I really wouldn’t recommend going to sleep with those levels though.

I love coffee….i drink about [emoji6] mugs of it every day…..black with no sugar.

I have two questions…

Why?
How?

(Not judging, just sarcasm)

Glad yer OK.
I drink coffee black with no sugar too.

Was your’s instant coffee or from a machine?
Sometimes instant can taste “burnt” if you don’t add either a little milk or in my case cold water first?
