That sounds like a terrible day. I hope you manage to sort a few things out and get back on track quickly.

Could you go back to a strict routine of eating the same thing in the same portions at the same time for a few weeks (the 1970s diabetic diet) and adjust your insulin to carb ratios, sensitivity factors, etc. based on the results of the trial and then start introducing other foods with (hopefully) similar carb values to see how you respond? [That is basically the way I started carb counting on my most recent round of carb counting experience.] Diabetes is a load of work, but my health and well-being is worth a lot to me and I am totally willing to do the work if I have the resources and the direction. If you think I am being silly, you can absolutely tell me so.
