Hi everyone,
I'm T2 (still waiting on tests) on Novorapid and Lantus since the end of Sept last year. I've noticed on hot days that my BG falls quite dramatically.
Eg I was in the sun for an hour at the weekend, had 32g carbs for lunch and gave myself 3 units of Novorapid and my BG halved in 30 minutes. My BG was 9.8 just before lunch. I was wearing a sun hat, sunscreen, not sweating or running around. Literally just sitting on the beach.
This has happened to me a few times now on hot days, my readings will fall quickly just sitting in the sun. Any advice on how to treat this? I want to enjoy my summer after being indoors so much of the past year.
