The propose of a basal is to keep you at the same level BG when you are fasting. You defiantly need to drop you basal and you may even think about splitting you dose so that you can take a little less at night then in the day. If you are dropping that much at night that is a very dangers level of insulin for you especially at night when you might not wake up when you are low. Please work at decreasing the amount that you are taking. I would also consider doing a basal check when you get a chance so you can figure out what is happening. They are a lot of work and a bit of a pain but it is well worth it when you have a basal that is closer to what you need. If you need the help and have a good endo don't be ashamed to get some help with your numbers it sometimes helps to have another set of eyes.
