What To Do When Blood Sugar Goes High After A Meal And Stays There?
Another answer is to spread your insulin dose out over several hours. Whenever I have a high fat meal, I give my bolus over 3-5 hours, perhaps 90 minutes apart. Although my Medtronic pump is great at managing small highs, I manually stack my boluses in smaller increments for high fat and/or high protein meals.
I had that problem after breakfast. I routinely ate a nonfat nondairy yogurt, 1/4 c of berries, a 1/3 c of low fat granola with 10 carbs for 1/3 of a cup. My endocrinologist advised me that my granola has nuts in it and the fat contact kicked in a couple of hours later creating a sugar high. I have the same problem with I eat nuts before bed as a snack and the fat kicks in after I am in bed and results in high glucose readings in the middle of the night. So reducing nuts is the key answer here.
