Fluctuations
Started this discussion. Last reply by Christopher Nov 15, 2012. 4 Replies 0 Likes
My sugar levels are often fluctuating. They are either too high or too low and I would like to maintain more stable sugar levels, say between 100 and 200. Could this require a change in my diet?Continue
Oh, That looks yum!

I am an absolute chocoholic and I cannot restrict myself sometimes! Though I am aware that I have just a few bites and have the right dosage of insulin, my sugar levels raise rapidly. Can you please…Continue

Christopher replied to Chinu's discussion 'Fluctuations'"Diet plays a critical role. If you can maintain consistency in carb/protein content for each meal each day, you can remove most of the variability that food plays and then fine tune your insulin accordingly."
Holger Schmeken replied to Chinu's discussion 'Fluctuations'"There is also the impact of the female period to consider. I would recommend to write down the beginning of the cycle and your current day in the cycle. So on the first day you write 1 and count up for the following days. The idea is to identify the…"
Zoe replied to Chinu's discussion 'Fluctuations'"Do you see patterns in your highs and lows, Chinu? You might have to do some tweaking of doses. If you are having problems with your post prandials then you should consider altering your I:C ratios. If you have problems with your fasting, in between…"
Gerri replied to Chinu's discussion 'Fluctuations'"Yes, diet is critical. Don't know what you eat, of course, but it's quite difficult to cover very high carb meals with insulin. Absorption rates are variable with larger insulin doses & the chances of miscalculating increase. The…"

Don replied to Chinu's discussion 'Oh, That looks yum!'"Life without chocolate is...unimaginable! It might be worth figuring out how to use the "super bolus." It uses basal insulin to help reduce the initial spike."
Josephine A Ni Dhomhnaill replied to Chinu's discussion 'Oh, That looks yum!'"AR that's hilarious, do the other guest sit looking at you wolfing dinner down so you can get to dessert. I'm trying to picture it."
acidrock23 replied to Chinu's discussion 'Oh, That looks yum!'"I think the main problem with treats is that they are more strongly concentrated doses of carbs. A small dessert might have as many carbs as the rest of the meal and, even if you only eat a bit of it, it's like having a sandwich or something.…"
Josephine A Ni Dhomhnaill replied to Chinu's discussion 'Oh, That looks yum!'"I had to wean myself off choclate, it was unpredictable. It never worked with my hypos, it caused a massive spike later on in the day because of the fat content. I am also on injections, so not in a position to advise, but there are plenty of others."
Clare replied to Chinu's discussion 'Oh, That looks yum!'"I'm sure there will be people out there who can give you the correct pump setting to eat chocolate. I don't have a pump so I can't help you there, but I can say as a fellow chocoholic it's more important to have a chocolate that…"
