What a vicious cycle on MDIs at night. I used to inject befor bed and then immediately start eating so I wouldn't crash in my sleep. The lower my bgs in the am, the more I would eat the next night. Then, eventually, I'll wake up with high bgs and my doc would tell me to inject more at bedtime, which lead to more eating..... "Jane! Get me off this crazy thing!". Now that I'm pumping, I can actually go to bed on an empty stomach
