I’ve recently taken up mountain biking and I need some advice on how to adjust my insulin and/or diet to cope with it.
In the first hour of mountain biking my bloods fell from 9.2 to 2.8. I was running my blood slightly high to cope with the exercise by having a unit less with breakfast and also had a unit less of my AM dose of levemir, but it still dropped dramatically and was quite difficult to bring back up!
Would appreciate any advice anyone on here has! I also plan to discuss my healthcare team.
Thank you!
