Ah lucky lol enjoy!

And thank you
 
Ah I hope it isn't the milk.....I LOVE milk lol! My bloods was pretty good last night stayed in the 4's oh and the one 3.8 which felt dreadful as where I haven't hypo'd in so so long it felt worse! Feeling a lot better today....so hopefully my doses are working!
 
See I'm slightly confident in giving corrections but never know what's going to happen for instance a few weeks ago I had a lucozade as I was really ill I calculated it all and an hour and a half later I was a 16.0 and it wouldn't let me correct and then about an hour later I was a 4.0 so lucky I didn't correct really!

I think something like Lucozade (when you're not using it as a hypo treatment) shoots you right up because the insulin can't really catch it, but then the insulin kicks in finally and pushes your blood sugar down. if it was something like that, I'd wait because I'd guess the high was because of the fast acting glucose.

For normal meals, I would correct a 16 if I got that at an hour and a half. Also, I think about how I usually react to that meal, whether I'm ill, etc, etc.

I did quite a few corrections in the last weeks of pregnancy. The insulin resistance is in full flow then.

Keep well X
 
Yeah I never usually have lucozade unless it's for a hypo but I was just so ill and needed some kind of energy and my consultant said it was fine...just the outcome wasn't ideal ha!

Yeah defo agree with the insulin resistance and I've been taken off of metformin as well now as it was making me so I'll! Xx
