Morning!
I was diagnosed last summer and spent a month or so on novorapid before switching to Fiasp as I was struggling with pre-bolusing long enough.
I’m now finding that for an hour and a half after eating certain meals my levels are fine, but then I shoot up.
I asked my diabetic nurse for advice and she said my ratio must be wrong, so I tried changing it last night by eating the same meal as lunchtime but giving slightly more insulin. I had a short hypo (didn’t treat us as I was expecting to shoot up again, which I did). Pic below showing lunch and teatime spikes - I gave a correction unit both times as I hate going high.
Both meals were two slices of bread, salad, cheese, hummus and a spoon of cous cous. I weighed, carb counted etc.
It seems for me Fiasp doesn’t last very long, and I’m having to inject twice for meals.
Has anyone else experienced this, or ended up switching to a different insulin?
Sorry for the long post!
