Worth worrying about 1 hour post meal levels?

Hi, what was your reading before your meal?

I would say then your levels are good. I think most people test at 2 hours after meals.

30 mins to 1 hour after a meal BGs tend to be near their peak. The height of the curve doesn't normally matter that much, it's pretty much dependant on what you have eaten. A glucose drink will be high for example. The important aspect of the curve is how quickly it comes down. A return to near normal by two hours is what one would expect in a non diabetic.
