Wow....Mine goes down so much in the last few hours before a meal. The morning's are especially bad. If I'm less than 250 at 9am (I eat breakfast around 7am), I'll definitely need a snack before lunch. (I walk to work - 1/2 an hour.) In the afternoon and evening I don't have to let it go up so high. Just in the morning. I always thought this was at least relatively normal. My endo has never told me otherwise. *sigh*
