[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 1118438, member: 11028"] That is one big bg spike, do you inject ahead of your food to give your insulin time to work? Insulin's like Novorapid & Apidra take around 20 mins to work so injecting ahead gives the insulin a head start to match the digestion of the food, I inject 20mins ahead for my breakfast (porridge) but some members say they have to inject 30-40mins before to reduce the postprandial spikes.
