BG was fucked all last week (I had been away for 2 weeks, helping friends move to Haida Gwaii so my food and exercise routines got all messed up.) Often spikes to 17-21mmol, even with increases to basal rates and extra boluses.
I am giving myself this week to get slowly back on track. I was trying to explain to someone the feeling of having high BG for days on end. I’m tired to the point of exhaustion, foggy headed, irritable. They said they understood and man, it was hard to not tell them to shut up. You have no idea what it’s like.

BG down to 6 by the evening. Ran with an increased basal rate of 50% most of midday. hoping for better tomorrow.

1.9mmol. Woke up at 10:30pm. Freestyle scan just said ‘low’. Never seen that before. Huh. Finger stick as start eating dex tabs. 1.9. Feeling waves of cold sweats rolling over me, and nausea. Super tired all of a sudden. Out to kitchen for pb&j and sit at the table shakily slathering bread from open containers. I remember i had the peanut butter container clutched between my knees.
