[QUOTE="Pinkorchid, post: 1019939, member: 166283"] We are all individuals so are our BG levels. It is said that testing 1 hour after food is to early as you will probably see a spike which may worry you. Even non diabetics BG can rise quite high after an hour not unknown for them to even have spikes into double figures after a carby meal. Testing can become obsessive if you are not seeing the levels you want to so try not to test under 2 hours after eating and then as you have done already you will find you are probably within range of the guidelines [/QUOTE]
