Good evening everyone. Today, I was up at 5:30 am because of the alarm on the receiver went off saying that I was under 80 mg/dl. After I woke up and did my snack with test, I went back to sleep for an hour and then had breakfast.
Later in the day on and off, the results kept going away. They almost didn’t come back this evening. They went away before dinner tonight. When it came back around 7:30 pm, my numbers were going under 80 mg/dl on the receiver, but I was actually 113 mg/dl. I had another snack and test. I had to recalibrate the receiver. It alarmed at 80 and then almost alarmed, again because it was going towards the 55 Fixed Low alarm. Got the numbers under control. It’s very odd because I had the same meal recently for dinner and it didn’t drop the numbers last time. Any ideas?
More to come later. Stay safe, healthy and happy!😀👍🌈

In some cases, yes. The amount of carbs. and the food does have an effect on the numbers, but it was the same as last time. I even did less insulin after eating dinner last night.
I’m doing okay, but there’s no readings right now, again.
It finally came back, now! Very odd, but at least there's a number and a dot showing where it is on the graph. No arrow so far, though. One question I may call about is dealing with the calibration issues. Why would you be told a specific time you can calibrate if it won't take the number when you know it needs to be done at the moment? That seems weird to me and shouldn't be an alert.
That's a possibility. The only thing is, I did stay to a low carb. amount for dinner (close to 50 carbs.). The insulin dose was 8. I do 10 units before bed with the long acting insulin each night.
