Recent unexplained glucose level spikes

Hello,

Am a newbie here. I am posting on behalf of my girlfriend. She is 50, a type 1 diabetic, and more or less a creature of habit as to her diet and glucose management regimen. The past few weeks she has inexplicably been waking up mornings with glucose levels 200 to 300, when she had been accustomed to waking up with 50 to 80 levels. Her basic habits evenings before she retires is unchanged. She has recently taken to setting her alarm to wake up 2 am to do a check, and typically her level at that time is 80-110 - only slightly higher as compared to when she retires. She is otherwise apparently as healthy as ever.

Any ideas as to what the cause of this change might be? or strategies for managing this new situation? Any links or previous posts you can direct me to that may shed light on this vexing situation? I will supply additional info if needed.

Thanks in advance for any help!
