[QUOTE="GreenUmbrella, post: 2161368, member: 516388"] Thanks for your reply Resurgam. I do suspect this. I’ve tried to follow spikes using the glucometer, but this week I haven’t had the time to do multiple readings. Really regretted this because I was curious! The few times I have been able to follow a spike they do seem to go up and down quickly. (After the OGTT I dropped from 138 to 51 in 40 minutes. That was a surprise! But I realize the OGTT isn’t exactly normal circumstances). I guess I would need to splurge for the continuous monitor myself in this case. I hear they are expensive. I was hoping to catch some of this swingy action in an “official” way (like lab tests) so the endocrinologist would see what I’m talking about. She’s really not interested in the results of glucose meters — she considers them unreliable. The only thing she takes seriously is the official blood draws. I feel like there is something real going on, but how do I prove it? [/QUOTE]
