| Hi Chris,
As I read your posts, a little thought began to trickle into the old brain: Google Symogi Effect and see what you come up with.
Every now and then over the years, I've gone on a tight control binge and gotten myself into the Symogi pattern. It's a series of highs and lows caused by overcorrection. You get yourself a little too low and your body compensates by releasing stored glucose from your liver. Then you are too high. So you overcorrect and get yourself a little too low again and... It gets to a point where you don't know exactly where you are or what's happening.
The correct response to the Symogi Effect is to take a breather from tight correction (not your basal though) for a while...maybe a half day. Eat sparingly and let everything settle down. Then you will know where you are and can resume regular earing and correcting.
Chris, you are in prime honeymoon time, and Jennifer it sounds like you are correctly going slow with your half unit corrections, but I just thought I would mention this as a possibility.
And here's to both of you for being on top of it!
