[QUOTE="TashT1, post: 2361623, member: 526953"] I find that my breakfast ratio is 1u to 5g and it’s best to avoid toast completely unless I want to take a large dose of insulin. I eat eggs most days & don’t see a rise with just basal on board. You could try ditching the toast to see if it gives you more consistent results. The other thing that springs to mind is that maybe you still have some insulin production which is making things unpredictable. When was your last c-peptide test? I would get in touch with your team, maybe a tweak to your basal would help or consider moving it to a morning dose. [/QUOTE]
