Hi

I have reactive hyproglycemia, and can go below 4 a couple of times a day.

So mid afternoon I usually have a snack.

today I had 4 (small slices of fruit loaf toasted with butter) :oops: and a yog

when I tested my blood over an hour later it 13.9 :shock: I have never been that high before

Are yogs or toasted fruit bread bad for you.

Any info would be greatly received

fruit loaf has a very high carb content so it will cause a spike in your bg.
as for the yogurt most have alot of added sugar I just eat natral greek yogurt it has alot lower carb content.
one thing did you wash your hands before testing if not it might have been a false reading.

You could try having smaller snacks more often. 4 slices of fruit loaf seems a lot - perhaps you could have just one or two. :)
