Try fasting or nibbling lettuce or anything that doesn't raise your glucose enough to trigger insulin release. If you do noticeably better I'll tell you what I can. Not being mysterious, it is just rather complicated.

Everett, I always eat breakfast, I get a headache otherwise. However, I wait until meds are at least starting to work before eating. What do you think?

Thank you all so much.
