[QUOTE="Levy, post: 1648600, member: 31447"] 100% agree on getting referred to a hospital, and I'm a bit shocked you haven't been to be honest! You'll be able to see a consultant, diabetes nurse (who both have experience with helping you optimise your doses) and sometimes even a dietitian should you feel the need to. I go every 3 months and couldn't do this without that. As for the gastroenteritis, do you think it could have affected the way your food is digested? How long after your meal are you spiking? You could potentially try and split your bolus until your body decides to sort itself out. I had to do this for a while a couple of weeks ago because it was spiking around 2 hours after my meal. If I had to bolus 5u, I would take 3u with my meal and the other 2u about an hour after eating. [/QUOTE]
