Hi all,
I'm type1 a cpl of years now, and am quite well managed all the time, I rarely have any issues of any sort thankfully. Yesterday, and especially today though, I had a massive rise in levels, and extremely rapidly at that. Basically, I've been off work for the Easter holidays, and I've been working outside. I was 3 hours in the garden yest, started feeling very tired, checked my Libre, and I'd gone up to 24!! That was from 9.5 three hours earlier and it took all evening to come down again properly...
At 2.00 today I was around 8.0 on the Libre, tested myself and yeah 8.2. Had a bowl of homemade soup, and 1 slice of wholemeal bread (15g carbs) and I injected accordingly. I sat in the garden for an hour and it was extremely warm, came back in, checked my Libre and i'm 21!!!
The Libre shows my level skyrocketing at the time I was in the garden.. Does hot weather do this?? It's really frustrating when you know you're doing everything as you should, and then this lol. My carb counting and dosage counting is bang on because my daughter cooks and counts everything with me, and she attends my clinic appts with me, and they've told her its all good. This just threw me today.
Thanks for any help.
Jim
