Type 1 High BG

[Tugba]

Hey everyone,

I had dinner yesterday around 8:30pm and 2 hours later my bg was 6.6. I then woke up at 4am to a bg of 20. How is this possible? I didn’t eat anything afterwards

Slow burning carbs???? What did you eat?

I find if i eat a high fat meal i get a delayed rise about 6/8 hours later

What did you inject and where did you inject it?

As you can see there could be a few possibilities.....

High fat meal, digestion issues, dose error, dodgy site or dare I say it, a one off with no explanation....

It happens and every now and then.. i had a chicken burger meal and half a mcflurry. I injected in my stomach. Perhaps the fat is the reason??

 

[novorapidboi26]

Was it just a McDonald's chicken burger and chip then?

That goes through me quite quickly even though you would expect it not too......processed you see....

I would definitely give it another go and see what happens ....

What was your carb count? A burger and large chips usually comes in at about 100g, then add the McFlurry..

I had the burger elsewhere i don’t think it makes any difference though..

Im sure i gave myself enough insulin so i am very confused.. especially because it was okay 2 hours later

Could you be coming down with something? Sometimes I find an inexplicable high can be a sign of some impending lurgy and it all makes sense once I get symptoms.

Nothing at all...
