Hi
I have been Type 2 for some years now and have for the last three years been insulin based. I thought that I would try to get some information of post meal spikes and, today, I measured my bloods as follows:
Before meal: 6.8
Novorapid x 34 units
Meal: Two sandwiches (ham and mustard)
One hour after: 9.5
Two hours after: 10.6
Three hours after: 12.9
Four hours after: 8.9
This, to me, shows a worrying spike followed by a steepish fall. The trouble is that if I were to take a higher dose of Novorapid then there is a very real danger of a hypo.
Has anyone else had this same problem/experience and managed to arrive at an acceptable answer please?
