This one snuck up on me!

I have been saying on different posts that I have not been feeling well. I was having fasting reading of over 200 for several mornings. I have been extra careful about what I ate and forcin myself to exercise and drink water, even though I really wasn't feeliing too good. My knee started hurting really bad last night for no reason I could think of. But I was determined to not let all this get to me. I had oatmeal with nothing but a bit of Nutrasweet for breakfast, a sandwich of lunchmeat with low carb bread for lunch. Then despite the knee that was causing me to limp, walked for about 40 minutes. Now it is almost 5pm, I tested so I could eat some supper.....it is at 439!
This happened once before, a few months ago, but since then I have been real serious about counting carbs and exercising and drinking lots of water. Do I skip supper? I just took 12 units of Novolog...according to my doctors scale that only goes up to 300 +. Should I wait and test again, and how low do I need to be before I eat? I am very hungry. Is that because I am so high, though I have not eaten much today.

Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
