[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 594533, member: 90156"] as everyone else has suggested, in order to get the right basal rates over the 24 hour period, you need to test the dose, in smaller time slots....... I always believe that testing the overnight needs is a good place to start as you are not going to be eating anything and of course getting a good blood sugar to start the day is advantageous, it also lets you pick up the dawn phenomenon and when you need to increase your rate in the middle of the night....... are you aware of basal testing? I am going to assume you do even if its only the basics, as your on a pump......:) [/QUOTE]
