[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2164266, member: 401801"] Can you list what you eat in a typical day? Sometimes there's something in there that trips you up and contains more carbs than expected. Also, are you sleeping alright, no cold or flu or anything, mental or physical stress can up your numbers, as could a flu jab or medication... (Steroids and statins can up BG significantly and even cause T2). No telling how long it'll be until your bloodsugars go down. And with your tests being random, they don't tell you (nor us) much. Did you test in the morning? Then it could be your liver is dumping a lot of additional glucose because it thinks those numbers are normal, on top of what it usually would with dawn phenomenon. That'll pass eventually, but will take a while. You might want to switch to testing before a meal and 2 hours after the first bite, that way you can tell how your body responds to your meals, and it'll give a much more useful set of numbers than "random" testing. Hopefully you'll see single digits soon! Good luck! Jo [/QUOTE]
