Newly diagnosed June this year type one diabetes. Been doing really well on the whole, usually 70-80% in range nowadays, so thought I'd have a snack Friday night. Usually I don't inject for snacks as still early on in honeymoon phase. I'd estimate I probably ate 30-40g carbs (30g crackers , 10-20g balti mix) - chose balti mix as this usually doesn't seem to spike BMs much
Woke up the next morning a bit horrified as I had my high BM alarm turned off and had been running at ~13 all night, at one point it had reached 15 and 18!! Ketones 0.6 Saturday morning... drank loads of water, tried to keep BMs down and drank more water and it ent to 0.5 0.4... tested again now and it's still 0.6. The protocol says check again in few hrs and drink water.. don't feel too bad just tired, felt dazed Sat morning. Any advice for getting the ketones down to 0.1/0.2 please. Or will it just take a few more days? Thanks in advance, keeping a look out for DKA symptoms too.
