[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2396895, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=71170]@Soplewis12[/USER] If I was experiencing high spikes and could see a pattern I would try some exercise after eating, a walk would be my preferred option to try and taper a rise, so something gentle, obviously if circumstances permit, if that's not possible then I would reduce my carb intake with that meal, my tolerance to carbs varies throughout the day so first thing and later at night I cannot tolerate carbs and suffer massive spikes so avoid them at these times of day, mid afternoon though when picking kids up from school and shopping and this is where I can keep a pretty flat profile. I would also refrain from using the basal pattern on your pump for this, I only change my basal settings if I have done some basal testing and can see a rise without the presence of food on board.
