[QUOTE="Maisie1998, post: 2290577, member: 385937"] Hello. Wondering if anyone can shed some insight for me with my type 1 diabetes. Recently, I've noticed that after breakfast my sugar levels have been spiking, this doesn't matter whether its 5am on the weekends before work or 9/10am during the week when im not at work. I won't fill in on all the readings from the past few weeks but i'll explain this morning. So this morning I had my injection at 9:08 and then had my breakfast twenty minutes later to see if the food and insulin would work with each other better. I have cornflakes with canderel, a cereal bar and a tea with some sweetener. All together this was 41g for which i gave myself 7 units. When i checked my sugar level at 10:09 it was 10.7 and then when i checked it again at 11:25 it had shot up to 16.5. Over the past week i have upped my tresiba (background insulin) to 18 and then to 19 but that seems to have made no difference. As the day goes further on though my sugar level does go back down because yesterday i gave myself some extra novorapid to try and correct it but i had a hypo at 3.9. Other times of the day it does not spike and i go to bed at around 11/12pm every night and except for weekends i wake up at around 9/10am most days. Thanks for anyone that can help :) :) [/QUOTE]
