Lantus help...

Hi Everyone

I have been reading this forum for awhile but not posted much. I have learned so much from you guys already and thought someone would have some advice for me. So I was diagnosed with type 1 in Jan of this year and I'm currently on Lantus and Humalog. My first A1c was 12.3 at dxd and is now 7.2! Next time I'm hoping it will be in the 6 range but I'm happy with the huge improvment!

Anyways.. I'm still trying to adjust my lantus. Lately my numbers are great throughout the day with very few lows BUT my morning numbers are now higher then I'd like (7-9) when before my morning nbrs were really good (around 5) but I was going low between meals. I know this could be DP but is there any suggestions for keeping my morning nbrs down and NOT going low during the day?? I'm thinking I may need to get a half unit pen but not sure if that would even work. Or maybe I'll just have to accept the slightly higher morning nbrs since I'd rather that then always having to eat throughout the day. I currently take 1 shot of Lantus at night (around 16 units).

Thanks for any help or advice in advance!!!
