Deus: Just curious...what is it about March and October causing "odd" readings on the forum? Is this more with T1's or are T2's affected as well?
It's more noticeable in T1s because there's a very immediate feedback from injecting insulin on blood sugar. But I'd imagine it's the same for T2s too. Basically (and I've no real science to prove this, so take it for what it's worth), lots of people seem to have difficult with their readings in March and October, which just also happen to when Spring and Autumn happen. My personal theory is that your body's metabolic rate varies according to the season, and as a result your body will process glucose either quicker or slower as a result of that. Therefore your insulin requirements will change accordingly.
