[QUOTE="Margi, post: 201776, member: 30601"] I know this isn't really what you are asking about, but it caught my eye and, while I can't give you a reason, I can tell you my experience of it. It seems it is normal for BS to rise during the days - for me, up to two weeks or even more - before a period and then, at some unpredictable point during, or a day or so after the end of the period, your BS drops like a stone. I call it my 'crash day', and it happens every single period, you just never know quite when it will happen. I don't know what causes it, but presumably it's to do with hormones and their vagaries, but it seems to be a recognised thing. So, like I said, I can't give a reason, but it is not uncommon and you just have to juggle insulin etc to accommodate it. I am soooooo glad that I am almost past it all now. Had a whole year off till February this year! Thought I'd stopped, but not quite. Balance is so much easier to achieve now without that nuisance monthly cycle. Can't advise on the other stuff I'm afraid, but good luck with it all. [/QUOTE]
