Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Erika has type 1 diabetes which means there is no insulin production in the body. The normal blood glucose level should not be more than 180 mg/dL after having meal.

If Erika uses insulin regularly and still encounters that one day her blood glucose level is 260 mg/dl then she must give herself a specific dose of insulin as this a hyperglycemic condition.

Hence, the correct answer is option A
