[QUOTE="ROE100, post: 2132098, member: 11546"] I understand your frustration. Before I did some fasting to check my basal injection I also seem to get a high after the morning injection & B/Fast and then a drop to normal level just before lunch. However my basal testing showed that instead of a flat release of the basin insulin (Lantus) over the 24 hours (maybe 18 hours as some have said) I got a high peak in the morning and then a drop over the rest of the day when fasting. This was on a split dose late PM and early AM injection. I have changed my regime to 3 injections of basal insulin which was now made me get flat levels during the night and when I wake and start moving so no more highs after B/fast, So even though I don't have excatly the same as you I now have sudden spikes after lunch and then high for 3 hours and then drop back down to normally levels. So ratio is correct as i woudn't drop back down to normally if the ratio was not correct. So even though my new basal regime has help night and mornings I feel I have justed moved the issue to a different time of day. I am currently low carbing, and using Fi-Asp so the suggestions above haven't working for me but as people say we are all different and i hope they work for you while i still try and work this out and i surpose do another fasting day to check my new regime is working as it should. All the best hopefully you will get to the bottom of it [/QUOTE]
