I hated the night-time lows - that was when I took lantus at bed time.
I read here on df about split dose lantus where part of the lantus is taken at breakfast and part at bed time. I tried that and shortly after starting that experiment, I had a nasty night-time low - actually, very early morning low, paramedics came to visit.
So, now I take lantus at breakfast and do not have early-morning lows.
You might think of switching to lantus in the morning - if you are taking lantus.
Another suggestion, in all seriousness - the doctor that told me I had diabetes when I visited the emergency room 34 years ago, said I would know more about this diabetes (my diabetes) than anyone. I count that as sage advice and pass it on to you. Do not depend on someone who is earning a paycheck to provide information - it is their job, and sometimes they don't know and sometimes they just cannot care. Depend on them for some advice, but certainly very few paycheck earners know diabetes - your diabetes - like you do. Be careful, watch and consider all that is happening around you as you do the insulin game.
