I keep thinking what could have happened toake it drop so fast. His BS had been running high for about 3 weeks at university and he was finding it difficult to get them down. He ended up swinging low high low high for a while. He's been home for 2 weeks over Easter and we managed to get them levelled out by increasing his basal rate following a call to his clinic.
