I am a T2 non insulin. Occasionally I end up going to a party or event and eat stuff I know I shouldn't - this I did last night. Then I saw the massive spike on my Freestyle Libre device that I am trialling for last 3 weeks - last night I hit 260 with an xmas meal despite my normal medication (sitagliptin+metformin). For the last 3 weeks I have been staying largely in the range - peaks below 180 and good Time in Range.
Accepting that my self control at such events is poor, is there anything I can do to bring the spike back down quickly or avoiding it to start with? Or take an extra pill before or after knowing that I am going to be bad?
Secondly - is a bad day hitting 260 really a big deal if not happening too often? Say once a week?
