Despite being ultra careful with diet and taking meds as I should (metformin + byetta) my reading this evening 3 hours after eating was 9.9. What is going wrong !!!!

All sorts of things can kick up your blood sugar. Stress, excitement, sickness (sometimes you get a virus that your body fights off without you getting any symptoms), temperature...

Don't worry if you get an inexplicable high, or even a bad day or two. Try your best to find a cause so you can learn for the future, but don't let it get you down. If you are getting highs consistently, THEN it's something you have to address.

Cheers
