| What rapid-acting insulin do you bolus with, kel4han? I used to do Humalog, which did not prevent my post-meal spikes at all - I would have similar numbers to what you have right now. Then my doc switched me to Novolog, so I could use their 1/2 unit pen. That helped a bit, my post-meal spikes were not so big (maybe into the 200s). I found that I could not correct those big spikes at the 2-hr mark, because if I did, I would go hypo later on. And like you, if I increased my bolus to prevent the huge spike, I'd be low later on too. I thought that it just took my body a longer time to come back to normal. Not ideal, but I lived with it. Then I tried Apidra, and this stuff has been amazing for me. My 2-hr post-meal readings are typically 150 or less and I don't drop low later on (4-6 hrs later) because it has a short tail. It's amazing how differently all these rapid-acting insulins work inside us.
