I’ve got some medical and life stuff going on right now and motivation is seriously lacking. Mostly I’m holding on but today I massively and hugely fell off the wagon, worst since diagnosis 3 yrs ago and total gluttony of the biscuit variety. (Specifically Jammy dodgers, oddly aptly named). I was out and didn’t have a meter with me. When I got home I faced the music expecting a lingering high. Instead I saw the lowest level I’ve seen in many months (if only I could get this all the time without the carb overload first). I must have spiked horribly earlier though.
So I assume that this shock caused me to pump out huge amounts of insulin and it simply kept on going further than it usually does. Does that seem a realistic assumption?
Silver lining? I obviously still have plenty of insulin production without an expensive test to prove it.
Back to being good tonight to stop the slippery slope. Can’t undo it now so I’m not beating myself up either. Just curious.
