    Thanks @SaskiaKC - all support welcome.
    I thought a T1 who knows what 20 feels like would tell me to stop fretting about an 11.
    I feel stressed but not sure if it’s the spike or the anxiety the spike has caused.

    Baileys caused the spike but the stressed anxious feeling is a Schrödinger’s cat question: am I racing because BG is high or because I found out it is high?
    Resisting the urge to test again.

    Good everyone. Hope everyone had a good day.
    @shelley262 did you try the cheese scones at itwontdiabeatus.com ? I find them very good for breakfast split with generous butter.
    @ianpspurs that little grandaughter of yours has it all worked out and willwind you round her little finger...and why not?
    You are truly blessed.
