[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1640851, member: 53162"] Hi Levy, all you are doing is looking for patterns where your BG levels rise/fall by more than 2mmol/l, which then indicates your basal will need adjusting, by breaking it up into 4 segments it's easier for you to cope without the need to eat if you feel that you want to test your basal for longer then just carry on. If you're going over 13mmol/ try and ensure that in the period before you start your test that your in range by correcting with your novorapid or start it when you are in range (with no quick acting on board) always 5 hours from when you last ate/injected. You could also try eating something low carb too if it helps you stop this rise, best times to look to start it would be afternoon/evening :) [/QUOTE]
