I probably sound REALLY dumb; I'm sorry! I've just never known anything other than.. 3 shots a day, humalog & nph. I feel like I need change though . . .
The Lantus would replace the NPH, which, as BlueSky says, has peaks. Those may be contributing to your lows. The Lantus is supposed to have *no* peaks at all (I felt some when I used it, but they were small, and nothing compared to what I'd experienced before), and therefore *fewer* opportunities for lows.

As for sounding dumb ... there's no dumbness like not asking questions. Keep 'em coming.
