Guest guest Posted April 2, 2012 Report Share Posted April 2, 2012 Sometimes your bg is on the rise, and even though you take some fast acting insulin, it's not enough. It's also possible the insulin you took simply didn't absorb well. What foods did you eat prior to the first high reading? Something high fat perhaps?

I did my first test and it told me the result was 169. So i took a few units of insulin. However even afer not eating my sugar two hours later read a higher reading of 189. My ? is this. Does insulin sometimes have the opposite affect from what it is supposed to? thanks scott -- Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 No, but how long before you took the insulin did you eat and how many carbs were in the food you ate. Maybe the amount of insulin you took was not enough to cover what you had eaten before hand, so your sugar continued to go up. Or you did not get enough blood on the strip with the first test, so it read lower than it should have read. _____ From: blind-diabetics [mailto:blind-diabetics ] On Behalf Of Sent: Monday, April 02, 2012 11:33 AM To: blind-diabetics Subject: my first 2 test with the prodigy voice Ok i got my new prodigy voice todaay.
