Every time I eat my blood spikes but if I ever give more insulin I then have a hypo.
Like today my blood was at 6.5 so I gave myself 2u humalog an hour before lunch as I know it spikes, I was 5.4 before eating where I gave myself another 2u (as was eating 55g and I'm on 1:15/1:12.5 ratio) and my blood shot up to 12.6 I mean that's more than doubling. But now three and a half hours later I'm down to 4.2.
Is there anyway to stop the spiking and keep the sugars more level than going too high and then dropping? This happens with every meal.
