[QUOTE="ickihun, post: 1856583, member: 196960"] Insulin doesn't like fat. It delays digestion, hence your 23 from carbs earlier then correction carbs. Also did you over treat your hypo when carb wasn't working quick enough in your delayed digestion? Hypo was probables due to being relaxed and not needing as much basal due to your enjoyment. Next time take less basal a day or 2 days before, for such occasion and expect a high due to extra carbs and alcohol. Most alcohol has still remaining sugar in it for taste. A few spirits will give a very low if not accumplied by carbs. In my experience alcohol, carbs and same insulin always causes a temporary high fbg. Don't over compensate for high bg but definitely monitor more til your back on track and on original basal. You may find alcohol and carbs affects you for a few [I]days. [/I] [/QUOTE]
