[QUOTE="KeithT 2, post: 1865237, member: 469507"] Everybody spikes whether they have diabetes or not. That's the nature of food. Clearly, diabetic numbers will be higher. I take metformin in the morning before breakfast and metformin and Gliclazide before my evening meal and my spikes have all but settled down within 2 hours of eating my carb free evening meal. Carbs are important to everyone's diet but diabetics have to control their intake. I eat carbs up till after lunch and then none for the rest of the day. This suits me, as I am more inclined to burn of the carbs during the early part of the day than I am towards the evening. However, for the sake of experiment I will test the prescribed 2 hours after my evening meal and see how different they are to the numbers I get at bedtime. For curiosity sake, here are a few of the numbers I was getting before taking control of this disease. Evening 18/11/2017 14.1 Morning 19/11/2017 7.2 Evening 19/11/2017 9.0 Morning 20/112017 7.8 Evening 20/112017 5.8 Morning 21/11/2017 5.8 Evening 21/11/2017 13.8 Morning 22/11/2017 6.2 Evening 22/11/2017 10.6 Morning 23/11/2017 7.6 Evening 23/11/2017 11.4 [/QUOTE]
