[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 307964, member: 44622"] Your numbers are not so unusual if I compare them to mine. In the early days of owning a meter I too tried the Bachanalia test to see what would happen and I managed to get to 14.7 after two hours and 14.9 a little later after some wine and chocolate. If I had tested after only one hour then I expect the numbers would have been higher. The point of testing two hours after a meal is not only so that we all work to a sort of standard but to see your recovery rate. Presumably you produce insulin at a constant but low rate and so it would have slowly brought down your numbers. After two hours they would have been lower than at one hour. Anyway, if you complete your Bachanalia tests and get down to sensible eating I predict that you will get some success just as I did and in my opinion there is no need to panic. [/QUOTE]
