I'll see what I can do. I've had a couple pretty good days in a row to shake down a basal adjustment and will see what I can do with what seems like a decent start, including a run, a (mini) Snickers and some leftover fried chicken, beans and rice last evening. The other thing I've noticed is that when I have a couple of really tight days, a bigger wave of DP will hit, apparently out of nowhere. Dr. Soosie had mentioned having almond milk before bed so I've been doing that too and perhaps it will help. You guys should bet Tu$ on when I will blow up!!
I've had my meter say "Hi" and at different times "Low". Is that what counts? Thank god that only happens at most once a year. I think on my meter "Hi" is bigger than 800, and "Lo" is less than 20.
If you are talking about "never being below 70 or above 100", wow, I'm not sure I've ever gone a day without doing one or the other or both. A week? You gotta be kidding me.
I have never had a "hi" or "low" read out on my meter. I guess I am talking in the 50's or above 180. Even though for decades of this disease 180 was an okay number for me, knew I could move through my day without fear of a low, lordie!!!
Hmmm, day two a bit more turbulent, pizza and McDonald's french fries caused some spikes that had to be walked off. The 64 is 81 so DP probably firing away and I wouldn't count that as a low since I didn't do anything? We'll see how today goes!
Damn, I blew it, woke up @ 50 meter today...maybe too much working out, not enough eating, too much insulin, etc, etc. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
I can go without lows (I consider <65 a low) for weeks on end. BUT I cannot go without HIGHS. I set my target at 100. I test ONE hour after eating and that's when I get above 140. Obviously my timing could be better. Get that insulin in 25 minutes ahead and at one hour there is no 140. In fact, there's only a little blip. Why am I so bad at it?
