[QUOTE="Emck, post: 1959353, member: 498565"] [FONT=Arial]Yes after it topped out at 10.4 it dropped back steadily into target. I didn't really experience any DP last night (I normally don't after exercise as it does increase my insulin sensitivity (I need to bolus a lot less). I aim to be in the gym/run around 3 times per week, but as you say this isn't always feasible and every day certainly isn't a possibility for me! I have experienced the same highs on mornings after the gym, so this is hopefully an improvement. I'll try the same approach tomorrow and hope to see the same results. I think it's important that I pre-bolus as soon as I wake, any minimal activity (showering, brushing teeth etc.) seems to trigger an upswing in my BSL. I guess I could pre-bolus, snooze for 30mins and then get up? My consultant has told me that I don't yet qualify for a pump, but I might plead the case the next time I'm in. My DSN had suggested that Levemir was the next step to try to counter these issues. However if I could demonstrate that my basal rate needed tweaking hour by hour, then that might help my case for a pump. I just want to try and get a solution to this sooner rather than waiting for my next hospital appointment![/FONT] [/QUOTE]
