From 10.2 to 4.5 in 60 minutes after a walk. I just want to know if this is usual.

[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2476350, member: 372717"] My guess (happy to be corrected by more knowledgeable T2s) is that the 90g of tortillas caused a big spike (the 10.7 was around that time though without a cgm you don't know what the peak was) and time and the the walk brought it back down. Unfortunately, using the 2 mmol/L rise after 2 hours rule. I suspect that the tortillas were a bit too carby for your body to cope with. Also, bear in mind the fact that glucometers have a built in error pf up to 15%, so the drop might not have been that much. But if all your other readings are going well then that suggests you have a good handle on things. My advice would be to use the spikes to moderate your diet. [/QUOTE]
