Edit -- I just found a converter... Should you call the doctor or something??? Worried for you.

| | I dose hrly when high but when I have an event that ruins my sugars it makes matters worse as it adds to the effects the steroid tablets have on me every day
I am p-ing loads and ketines aren't high so dont have to do anything more than I am trying (just wish it would kick in now) - I am following my instructions off my DSN but having the tooth pulled (and sedation etc to go to the dentist to start with) has kinda shocked the numbers a bit 
Not to worried here (just fedup of feeling c**p) as at diagnosis I ran alot higher alot longer so 5 days of running high aint bad for me, and I will get it down in time

| | | Mine is 126, 3 hours after eating 2 slices of real NYC pizzeria pizza for dinner. Still have the square portion of the bolus running. So far my CGMS graph has no spiked. I was actually dropping for the first 90-120 minutes after eating and then my BG started going up, but slowly.

Grrr...I guess my correction worked a bit too well. 41 on my OneTouch meter, 61 on my new FreeStyle Lite. (That's 2.3 or 3.3 for you mmol folks.) 4 oz of juice for me.
