Re: Blood sugar all over the place
Give it a week or two. You have to try and remove all variables from the routine. No offence, but my father would be getting a verbal scolding from me. You're trying to determine what's going on and he may be affecting numbers.
Going to 63 doesn't suggest room for an increase yet. You need to see what his nadir is consistently, when and what. Then you can decide on dose, or possibly when to give a carb treat.
That's what I do now, being he went to 6.2 mid afternoon on his latest curve. If his morning fasting is low, I assume his mid afternoon number could get low, so I always now give him a couple pieces of dehydrated sweet potato around 2:00. Just enougt o give a bit of a carb boost to prevent low, and not enough to spike sugar.
