Cool Umm....little help here please?

Oh boy, now this one's confusing. For the last two weeks, I've been having hypos, on average, about 3 times A DAY. Yeah, I know. Anyway, I've been drastically dropping my insulin intake to try and sort this out.

Now get this.

I've HALVED my LANTUS intake.

I've had to reduce my bolus doses by THREE QUARTERS.

And the worst part? I'm STILL having hypos every day.

I've been testing my bg on the hour now because of this. I've only ever been above 7mmol/l (126mg/dl) in the last week just after eating a meal. I once reached the lofty heights of 9mmol/l (162mg/dl) after eating a whole pack of glucose tablets and two Snickers bars. Otherwise, it's a very rare day when my bg makes it over 5mmol/l (90mg/dl).

Anyone have any clue what's going on? The fact I've had to halve my Lantus is just plain disturbing for me, and I'm still having hypos every night, no matter how much I eat before I go to bed.
