Message: <blockquote data-quote="kimyeomans" data-source="post: 2734622" data-attributes="member: 14935">I recently got the free trial Libre 2 system in order to understand and improve control of my BS. First week I thought I would carry on as 'normal' and observe what patterns emerge, then week 2 use it to apply some kind of control, ie fast and exercise to bring down high's. I am currently towards the end of the first week during which I had seen significant spikes after certain foods, as to be expected. However I am now experiencing continuous highs unexpectedly. For example, yesterday I had my last meal at around 6.00pm chicken and vegetables, I generally follow a low carb diet. Throughout the evening I got persistent alarms, 13+ and settled down around 1.00am although still high 10 to 11 until this morning. What concerns me, is I did deep breathing exercises (normal for me) which was followed by a sharp rise 13+ so went for a bike ride, continued to rise to 15?? I have not yet eaten today to try to bring it down, but at 12.30 still at 12.6?I have checked against finger pricking, may be a point or 2 out but still high.medication is metformin Anyone got any ideas what may be going on?</blockquote>
