Hot weather bg's

We have been having some very hot weather. Does anyone else find that their bg's drop, needing less insulin. I have been on temporary 60% for around a week. How does heat affect your bg's.

you're compeletely correct. Hot weather tends to lower blood glucose levels, and on top of that its pretty common to be more active durring nice weather which will also cause levels to drop more than usual.
