So today I was at 78. After eating 8 large m&ms I was 80. Then I had a small apple juice (15 carbs) and went to 108. Any one else having to do this? Is this bad? I probobly have 3 lows for every 1 high.
Any advice is great. :) thanks.

Hi Samantha

Have you worked out why you are going low? It would be easier not to go low rather than having to recover. You might find that glucose tablets would be better than M & Ms or apple juice if you do have to treat a hypo.

Hope this helps

Low blood glucose may be caused by the following:

Alcohol intake, especially without food
Stress
Not following the meal plan
Too much exercise or exercising for a long time without eating a snack
