Digestion and Pump
Hi all, I am Type 1 and a pumper using Sure-T.
Recently I am facing some problem with my elevated BG. I estimated the carb correctly for my meal, my BG continue to remain skyhigh 2 hours after meal.
For example, I had chicken rice and gave myself 110carb for the meal. 2 hours later I was quite shock to see my BG went up to 16.2mmol. After which I have to correct it to bring my BG down.
My Endo said that it takes 2 - 3 hours for food to be digested... But I still don't understand why my BG is that high 2 hours after the meal.
May I know if anyone has faced such problem?

You will have to experiment and find out what works best for you - don't count out a dual wave because it didn't work the first time for you. Pizza, rice and pasta are always dual wave boluses for me - these sigest slower for me and the insulin winds up hitting and working before the food is digested. A good book to get and read is Pumping Insulin by John Walsh - has many good tips to dual wave bolusing.
