Personally, I think that getting back to a lowish pre meal level is most important. If you have a relatively normal level at 2 hours then you can be low before the next meal. My own doctor suggests as a counsel of perfection that the 2 hour level should not be more than 3mmol/l above the starting level. I have a very good HbA1c but I certainly don't achieve that for all meals/
Lets look at the rise and fall of your glucose levels/
You started at 9.1 and rose to 14.4 with the meal This was a rise of 5.3mmol./l
From 2-4 hours it fell by 6.5mmol/l.
Think what would have happened starting from a lower level
Imagine you started with a level of 5.5mmol/l ,a rise of 5.3mmol would result in 10.8mmol/l at 2 hours.
The fall of 6.5mmol would result in 4.3mmol/l at 4 hours.
( in that case it would be a good ideal to experiment with changing timings/amount of bolus etc)
If it were me then I I would look at my background insulin .(ask your doc/nurse first) It maybe increasing it slightly ( ie 1 unit at a time) and aiming for a bit lower levels between meals. would help (but that depends on overnight levels so it needs looking at carefully)
If you haven't had T1 long or have had higher levels for a while then you will certainly have to make any changes very gradually.
