[QUOTE="DaveDisco, post: 99745, member: 13832"] Hi guys, wonder if you can help have two questions that I can't find answer to in my 4book diabetes library! :D 1) is the effect of insulin directly proportional to blood sugar level or constant For example, all other things being equal (exercise, CHo etc) if 1 unit takes me from 15 to 10 mmol does that mean that 1 unit would also take me from 8 to 3 ? 2) had a weird occurence the other day. checked my sugar before tea- ok. had my meal and insulin, then checked 2 and a half hours after tea. I was at 6.2. I ate nothing more and was feeling fine the rest of the night, but when I went to bed and tested then about 3 hours after the 6.2 reading I was 11.2 ! thought this must be a misread so tested twice more, got 10.9 and 11.4. I have no idea at all what caused this rise? any ideas? [/QUOTE]
