[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2513104, member: 25851"] Now that's odd. BG dropped as far as 5.0 by early afternoon and started to rise again to 6.4 by the time I was cooking my 2nd meal - late afternoon. I took another dose of insulin - reduced this time and intended to eat after half an hour but my dishwasher broke down. I didn't even notice, but Neil did, so of course, it had to be pulled out and examined. It took 3/4 hour before he could put it back in - even he's not sure what he did, but it's going just now. So I ate my meal 3/4 hour after dosing, by which time my BG had dropped to 4.0. It is currently still dropping and is at 3..4 despite 2 boiled sweets and some bread. I guess there is something in this timing business after all - just a matter of getting it right. For that meal I fried a small sliced onion and some garlic, added the lamb and the mushrooms along with some garden peas (frozen) and a large spoonful of the courgette and mustard thingy I made a few days back and some paprika. I added some slices of potato as well which were sprouting in the cupboard, so I'd sauteed them to use them up. Tasted good and the potato should have been enough to keep BG up, but it wasn't.
