Don't worry if it takes time, and then just when you think you've got it sussed, something changes and there's more learning to do! Remember too that many other factors affect bg, not just carbs and sugar which are the main ones, but it can change due to Exercise, duration and intensity Temperature, high or low (mine rises in the shower!) Illness Stress Medications Sleep, or lack of or duration or depth ...and much more . Someone mentioned 42 factors. So use your meter as a guide not a rule! [/QUOTE]
