[QUOTE="Muneeb, post: 1916857, member: 491635"] It could be a range of factors. Firstly if the insulin is the one you have been carrying around it may have gone off, have you tried replacing both basal and bolus insulin? Secondly stress can have a big impact on BSL, this would require more insulin, I find exercise helps reduce my levels when stressed. Are you pre-blousing? I know you have been doing it for years but if the food you eat has a high GI for example it will release sugar much quicker so will require you to inject before eating (sometimes up to 40 minutes for myself on novorapid). It could be you have caught a bug and are ill? This can also have a significant impact on BSL's. I find my carb dosages are significantly throughout the day and even more so after exercise, maybe there has been a shift in the ratio? I'm sure the nurse will offer advise, but its good to check over these things yourself. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
