As newly diabetic I have been monitoring my BG levels five times a day since May 1. Most of the time my levels are within "normal" ranges. For example yesterday's went from 5.4 before eating to 7.2 after, the other three were between those two. But occasionally I spike into the 8s, early on had a couple of 11s but I know what to avoid now. At present I am on diet control alone.
Is it dangerous to have the occasional spike, if not, how frequently would be regarded as too frequent? Or should you be controlling diet so as to never get above 7.7?
