[QUOTE="Kaz261, post: 1145964, member: 220230"] Lots to respond to there Brun! Starting with Wednesday night, my dinner was roast beef (quite a lot as it was yummy), 2 very small roast potatoes, roast celeriac, roast onion, half tbsp carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, gravy and tsp horseradish. I ate when I dropped to 4.4 (2 multigrain crackers with cheese). That stopped the drop and didn't raise me much. I then had a white coffee and square of 81% dark choc before bed, which I had the previous two nights without trouble. Tonight's dinner included 100g (cooked weight) of whole grain basmati, but I'm usually ok with that. I didn't spike high, the drop was less dramatic and as you rightly pointed out, I returned to my pre-meal level and stayed there. The only thing I can pinpoint as a potential trigger for my wobbly times is when I'm around the 5.0 mark. I'm still not convinced ALL of my symptoms are a result of bg levels. I've made an appointment with my Endo next Thursday evening. I want to talk to him about my graphs/levels vs symptoms. I guess based on your observations and experience, are you thinking this doesn't look like RH at play OR do I just have it fairly well controlled? I'm going to experiment a little over the weekend when my husband is around. Not sure what I'm going g to try yet. I've spent so long trying to gain control and being strict with myself, I'm reluctant to undo my hard work. Plus I detest hypos!! Thanks for taking the time to comment. The advice on here is invaluable. Also thanks for introducing me to the Libra, it's an amazing gadget and my fingers are already recovering nicely! Even my doc was impressed by it [emoji4] [/QUOTE]
