That's completely normal. Anytime anyone (diabetic or not) eats something, there is a rise in blood sugar. As more insulin is produced by the pancreas (or substituted with medication), the levels start to drop and stabilize. That's why there is the "after 2 hours" rule. It usually takes about 2 hours for the body to adjust to the extra sugars and combat those sugars.
135 is a great number. Keep it up!

you have been given some reliable solutions yet there's no "in many circumstances going on" all people is diverse and all people responds to diverse ingredients in a various way. attempt attempt attempt is the only thank you to discover YOUR in many circumstances going on reaction to a undeniable foodstuff. After ingesting a meal attempt testing at 30,60,ninety,one hundred twenty,one hundred eighty and 240 minutes which provides you with your top it varies for every physique. in case you detect your top examining is purely too intense then alter and retest for that meal next time. No shortcuts i'm afraid yet after a together as you will discover you purely would desire to attempt now and returned to envision that meal. be conscious that there is what's stated as "The pizza effect" the place that top would be at the back of schedule by skill of the fat in the meal and the top won't take place till 4 hours out. very almost something may be eaten this style you purely would desire to prepare factor administration and if some thing is far too intense you would be able to would desire to pass it off your record of ingredients you may devour. Any spike into intense readings would reason you injury.

its normal. The pancreas is acting too get rid of extra glucose, when it fails, you have debates. 198 is very high, but 135 is not that bad- normal. Now after 2 hours if it is high like 200, go to a doctor.
