[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1091887, member: 211504"] Maryam, can you please elaborate exactly what you mean by "randoms?" Perhaps, tell us more about the last three times these spikes have happened. Also, you never mentioned anything about his bolus insulin. 3units is very low, but in the honeymoon phase even that small of a dose could explain his hypos (2.94-3.33mmol/l for our friends across the pond). To put it into perspective, I had a hypo once after only 5 units of Levemir and I'm a 210 pound adult. That equates to roughly .05units/kg. Also, I find that my levels can spike long after I eat which seems to be especially common for people in the honeymoon period. Apparently, I still have very good "Phase 1" natural insulin production which basically means I won't spike immediately after a meal. However, I can have issues as late as 4-5 hours after taking my last bite which can be particularly frustrating at night after I've gone to sleep. [/QUOTE]
