[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 2092404"] Have you been shown how to correct bg highs with a bolus? Exercise is fine but is not always convenient so you need to know your "insulin sensitivity factor" (how many mmol/l does your BG come down if you take 1 unit of fast acting insulin?) With regard to your question about honeymoon, my honeymoon period slowly petered out over about 5 years. I found my insulin needs slowly increased over time whilst the rest of my life stayed the same. The other thing to remember is that there are many things which can affect our BG so a high for a week may be due to stress, not sleeping well, heat, illness, a change of diet, ... Can you talk to your DSN about your highs? [/QUOTE]
