As for setting basals, yes I have frequently done the process of skipping breakfast and testing every hour. Lunch once or twice but actually not dinner yet - should still verify that.
I do not know pumping, but as you say lantus, I am thinking the pump handles the humalog, but you still need to do the lantus?
If so, you might try as I did when I got fed-up with the low early AM stuff due to night-time lantus dose.
I now do lantus at breakfast - no split. The one time I tried split, I had the paramedics over here at 3 AM. I went to only one dose of lantus (24 units), in the AM and no more early AM low. I can go to sleep at 150 and wake up at 90 which I consider quite nice. If I am at 90 at sleep time, I eat several triscuit crackers with peanut butter and am good to go. No more early AM lows for me. I suggest that you consider that scheme, if you like.
