[QUOTE="JAT1, post: 2339854, member: 490842"] Have you tried keeping an accurate journal, recording exactly what, how much and when you eat, as well as how much and when you took your insulin, and also recording your blood sugar readings first thing on waking, before eating, an hour and 2 hours after eating and before sleeping for the night. Also including exercise - like did you do more than usual or did you work more than usual or had more stress than usual. I found that with this journal I came to a far greater understanding of my metabolism, which in turn improved my diet and responding insulin needs. After some time I stopped with the journal as I now know what I can eat and when to take my insulin. I have had good blood sugar since I learned all that about myself, but fortunately the learning never ends. Recently, since where I work we get our temperature taken daily as part of the Covid protocol, I notice that if my temperature is below 36, my blood sugar is also low and know that I need to up it a bit. All the best in working this out for yourself. [/QUOTE]
