Talking Had to share...
I'm so excited! My doctor upped my Lantus to 55 on Monday. And all this week I have seen my numbers low like never before. It has been 128-174 which is so very good to a person who runs well over 200! This morning when I took my sugar it was 100! Still staying with my diet and have lost 24lbs since Feb.

Good news! You will probably have to decrease your Lantus dose at night as you will probably see your BS getting too low in the morning.
