| Your post prandial seems a bit high. A jump of about 36 or so is probably a worthy target for you to aim for at this stage. Before you go tinkering with your I:C though, there are a couple of questions:
- did you take a test at 4 hours? This is very useful to see if you may have deferred insulin action (such as through absorption issues). Given a good basal and no other big factors (eg, strenuous exercise, more snacks), the 4-5 hour test may reveal a bit. If it's coming right down then, some strategies might like to look at more low carb and low GI food, and/or pre-bolusing (pausing before the meal to let the insulin kick in), IF one is completely comfortable doing that. Of course be extra careful of hypos. Pausing 20 minutes or more before meals really helped my post meal spikes. Many people seem to have success with a small pause.
What did you have for breakfast? Many breakfast foods spike me, personally. How are other meals going at the 2 and 4 hour mark?
