I didn't know that (about the coffee).

Does tea have the same effect?

My bsl haven't been too bad since... actually dropped to 11.4 before dinner (hadn't eaten anything since lunch).

They're up again (1hr 1/2) after dinner, but only 16.2mmol/l (291). I know the meter isn't 'lying' b/c I double checked the keto-diastix the glucose strip turned dark brown straight away- got ketones, but I've spilt ketones in the past when I've been sick (and didn'thave diabetes).

Thanks.
