"I take 2 types of insulin... Actrapid(during the day) and Insulatard(night)."

I believe Actrapid is called R (or Regular) and Insulatard is called N (or NPH) in the US (please correct me if I'm wrong). Both have a fairly strong peaks. Have you considered the possibility that they may be both peaking at the same time?

I'd want to eliminate those peaks, or at least separate them in time. Switching the Actrapid to NovoRapid or the Insulatard to Lantus should give better results but a NovoRapid/Lantus regime would be best if they're available to you. I'd consider reducing my morning Actrapid if an insulin switch isn't possible.
