If I reduce the Lantus, is not enough for the rest of the day... I tried with 26, but, woke up with a good BG but in the afternoon was almost 300... I can reduce it with Novorapid but I am feeling more comfortable with the Lantus acting in background
Dawn Phenomenon doesn't apply to me ... if I have around 2 o'clock in the night 150 BG, in the morning is bellow 100... it's normal... I usually eat in the morning around 10-20 carbo (usually fruits or a small sandwich or both) without taking insulin at all... at noon is alway around 120-130.
Anyway I am so sleepy that I think that neither my liver or muscles are woke up  ... they woke up around noon (like me, of course ) |
LOL no matter what time I get up, I'm not "awake" until around noonish too!
I used to have an issue with DP before I was on insulin, when I was just on the pills and diet. But since I started insulin, I don't have the DP problem anymore. *shrugs*
