[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2584961, member: 517579"] I realise I didn't reply to your point about stress. I have done a stressful two hour drive in very bad weather and seen a rise from high fours to six, if I recall correctly. Nothing eaten in that time. That's just my system ensuring I have enough fuel to cope with what I'm doing. I see similar small rises after an hour's football, again my system responding naturally and normally to "stress" - raised adrenaline and physical activity. In both cases once the "stress" stops the need to have additional fuel stops, and the liver stops adding glucose. In no way are these "spikes", and it is misleading to call them that. They are all perfectly natural ups and downs. As you're not diabetic your system probably responds better than mine and might be much quicker at adding fuel and using it up. That is a good thing. BTW, I don't think your pancreas "has to heal" because you've zero evidence of it being injured/damaged. [/QUOTE]
