Don’t Know How I Managed This!!

Spoke too soon! Tea has spoiled things!!
No it didn't.

It gave you information on how much insulin you need for different meals, you need this information. Glucose levels are not a report card, they're a tool to use to work out your doses.
I think it would help you a lot if you started logging the carbs you eat in relationship with your glucose numbers before and after meals. This is the first step in finding the correct dose for you, even if you're on fixed doses now. And practising with carb counting is something you can do all by yourself, it will give you a headstart at your next appointment!
 
Was that spike checked with a finger prick?
As @Antje77 said, it is not a scorecard but a lesson. However, you will learn more if you are sure about the spike and CGMs have a tendency to over egg spikes so it is worth double checking with a finger prick.
No I didn’t finger prick! I don’t tend to finger prick for highs.
