Good afternoon everyone,
I would really appreciate some advice from 'experienced' type 1s who have had the same problem as me!
I was diagnosed with Type 1 in February, since then my blood glucose control has generally been very good. Just recently I have been experiencing random post-meal highs, usually in the afternoon, although at other times my BG readings have been spot on.
I saw my diabetes nurse yesterday who put it down to me not changing the lancet on my pricker often enough and to use a fresh one for every reading. However this morning another random high of 10.3 after just 2 pieces of toast (woke to a 7.6, took my usual 3 units of Novorapid).
I have been told I have extremely high levels of the antibodies attacking my pancreas - is it possible this just means the honeymoon period is over, and I should up my Novorapid doses..?
Many thanks for your suggestions!
Ruth
