generally i would say that my blood sugar is high like this 2 hours after most meals, but comes back down within four hours ish
@Fairygodmother -
In my work week i tend to eat bran flakes and milk for breakfast
Generally a sandwich for lunch
not much else during the day apart from fruit or orange juice to counteract any hypos

I took the OP (with a ratio of 1:10) then 6-9 units would imply carbs per meal of 60-90g... 90g carb per meal is a lot.That doesn’t sound like much carb, Chris, but of course it depends on the amounts.
I am finding that 2 hours after eating i am often reading between 10mmol - 14mmol
then around 4 - 5 hours after eating, i am having to take extra carbohydrate to counteract hypos
@kev-w good point on the type of cereal i am eating.
I think i will try the porridge daily instead of the bran flakes.
also i am finding a low carb evening meal really helps with overnight blood sugars.
@Engineer88 thanks for advice.
not tried anything else, Novo rapid seems to work for me, been using it for a long time.
Out of interest what were your issues with Novorapid?
