Early morning lows on Lantus

[kayt98]

Hi, me again. Does anyone have any thoughts on changes to ask MD about since waking with 52 on Monday and 57 today at around 6 AM? I don't usually wake till 7:30 but have awakened with palpitations and uneasiness. After checking and finding low, I drank 1/2c OJ and went back to bed. By breakfast at 8:30 they were 74-80. I am wondering if a split dose of the Lantus or AM dosing would work better. The premeals seem good. The post meals will be dealt with at a later date. I hope this post is easier to read than my last one. Must be the lows-------------! Thanks
PS-I hate lows, they make me real CRANKY

Some of us do drop at night with Lantus...but otherwise have good pre-meal numbers. Be sure to eat a snack at bedtime with carbs...this helps me wake up around 90-115 in the mornings.
