| Trying to figure this out...
Alright I am a little confused here. If I eat a big meal, and therefore need a big bolus, isnt it near impossible to keep an 80-120 bg level 2 and 4 hours after eating?
This morning I was at 150. I ate 100 carbs and it was matched perfectly with the bolus, as 2 hours later it was also at 150. However, at that time there was still more than 2 units left on board, so I decided to check 2 hours later and it went down to 73.
Pretty much what I am trying to say is that if you give yourself like a bolus of say 10, even if 2 hours later you are at a good number, it will go down ton because you will have about 5 units left on board. On the other hand if you get it so that 4 hours later you hit your target, instead of 2 hours later, that means you are going to go high at the 2 hour mark, and then drop down to your target.
What I mean is, medium to big boluses seem like a lose lose situation. You either go high first, then hit your target, or you hit your target first, and then go low.
What do you guys think?
