That is something I hadn’t considered, I have adjusted my doses and seem to be doing better but it’s definitely something to consider.

I had adjusted my basal but it took a few days to take effect (which I knew anyway but I was becoming inpatient and frustrated), I always feel I get more hypos once I have had one but didn’t realise this made you more prone to others, thank you for the advice of trying to keep it around 9 after...

I had never heard of this thank you for explaining it, after a few days and some further adjustments I feel back on top of it again so thank you.

Hi I hadn’t heard of this honeymoon phase before and feel this could be the issue, although I have been diagnosed a year and half but I can see that it can go on for a long time. Thank you.

Hi! I’ve had a rough couple of days and wondered if anyone could shed some light. Having a hypo as we know is pretty normal and happens from time to time and sometimes fairly often. However over the last few days I have had constant hypos, waking up in the night, waking up low in the morning...

Thank you for such a warm welcome. I had considered what you said about food being slow getting into my blood. For lunch I had tuna pasta bake which I injected for an obvsiously is carby. But what confused me is that on my graph I can see a peak that went up and back down for both the lunch meal...

Thank you for replying! I had a full on meal for lunch though I only had the chocolate as a kind of top up could a liver dump still be the explanation?

Hi, This is my first time using this so I apologise if this isn’t how I get advice. I was diagnosed with diabetes in December and so I am still learning how to manage it. Today I had an unexpected high blood sugar which I really can’t understand why it would happen so I wondered if someone could...
