As I head to bed, reviewing my BG levels over the day reminds me that I am back to a more conventional insulin usage profile. Most likely the culprit is that during the Covid19 lockdown, I’m just not getting as much exercise throughout the day. Not even “exercise” per say. Just movement alone doesn’t happen without an explicit effort.
We made lentils for dinner, which I knew would kick up my BG, so I bolused 5 units of Humulin. It seems to have held back the spike, but my level was still around 150-155, so I needed to elliptical to bring it down.
Gauging from the 145 peak that my BG hit last night on 3 units of long-lasting (Humlin) insulin, I decided to try 4 units tonight and see how it goes. Fingers crossed.
