Hello,

is 12.7 mmol/L after 250g of pure rice normal with no insuline?

For a type 1, if no insulin was being used for it that is normal. If I ate that and didn't bolus for it I would expect to go a lot higher but we all vary, for me today for example I ate 45g carbs and used insulin at the same ratio as normal and was at 17.6 an hour and a half later, and that was with insulin and less carbs than in that amount of rice so that sort of reading would actually be pretty good! (For me, like I said we all have different tolerances for carbs and different ratios etc.)

Yes, I'd say that was a pretty normal rise for Type 1 without insulin.

Can I ask why you didn't have any insulin @jirakst ?
