For the past week, my blood sugar seems to be very irregular in the morning and is followed by strange changes later in the day. For example, I could wake up a bit on the low side (70's) and by lunch it could be close to 300mg/dL. Even today I began at 95 and now at 11:30am, its at 244mg/dL.
I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause. As of late, I have been working quite a bit and not sleeping very well so it could very well be a lack of rest and possibly an illness coming on. What I do know is that times like these are very frustrating. Ever type 1 diabetic I know has had these periods of unexplanable changes in their blood sugars and every person I have talked to has the same advice... just monitor it and ride out the problem for at least a couple days.
I know that for myself, the transition from Winter to Spring is always really tough for me. The basal rate, correction and carb ratios tend to change a little bit between summer and winter, which requires a time to completely transition. I'm hoping these highs settle down soon. I'm keeping tight control on my diet and monitor more frequently until the problems subside.
Wish me luck!
I hope so too bunny. Cheer up!
