17u / 24 hours is .71u per hour and should be easy to cover. I'd probably cut back my boluses a bit and eat a cow or some other high protein snack before bed. I'd also be up at 2am testing and eating.
I guess you are right, maybe I’m over analysing it I did exactly that cut my bolus back and had a few small snacks, frequent tests.

I can't believe some of you take such small amounts, haaa I take 52units of Lantus at night.
What is your average TDD and Insulin:Carb ratio(s)? Maybe you could make a new post or post here (i dont mind) and see if people can solve your high BS, could be a number of factors from basal (Lantus) to I:C to stress. Having a "normal" BS would definitely make you feel better . Just an idea.
