Today: 87 to 166

A bit unusual. I usually run about 20 points lower. I decided to try a slightly-smaller Levemir dose this morning... basal fade bit me toward the end of the day.

Yesterday: 53 to 133

I shot insulin too soon for a preprandial of 79, and ended up drifting to 53.

Two days before that: bad

I overcorrected into a couple nasty hypos (42 one day, 26 the previous) because I was unaware of some Levemir morning subtleties.

My range has been running a little wider while I learn the tricks of my new basal insulin.
