[QUOTE="barrym, post: 2681221, member: 70535"] On a slightly off topic point, you refer to exercise, and as also been mention, exercise can cause BG rises. I think a differentiation between exercise and activity should be drawn. For example I call walking an activity. Many find walking, or easy cycling, maybe gentle swimming are beneficial to BG, whereas extreme exercise can have the opposite effect. An amateur explanation is that activity improves absorption of whatever insulin you've got on board, but exercise puts demands on the body which may involve the body dumping glucose to help out! There! Having said all that no one will ever listen to me again . [/QUOTE]
