[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 684116, member: 94045"] DON'T PANIC if your 1 hour readings are high - this is normal after a meal with some carbs. Non-diabetics have these spikes too. I believe 7.8 is a "normal" figure at 1 hour and 6.6 at 2 hours. (for non-diabetics). If you are within that, it is normal and good. I only test these because I want to make sure my own recorded levels pick up the peaks so I have a clearer picture of my averages before my next HbA1c. Some forum members test their own non-diabetic families and see spikes of above 7.8 at an hour. The trick is to get them down again by 2 hours, and if that happens, something is working in your body.
