But now, and I wonder if adding HGH to the mix has something to do with this, I can easily get away with 5-7 grams of carbs per injection and sometimes not even have to worry about the second spike. Because I don't want to unnecessarily drink a bunch of dextrose, I'll usually just do 5-7 grams of dextrose per IU (sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't) and keep a bad of gummy bears with me just in case.
