[QUOTE="Jaylee, post: 935120, member: 101136"] [B]I [/B]Funny enough... Once in a while I have found myself in a hypoglycaemic "holding pattern". To elaborate. I play in a couple of bands. I don't eat at least 5/6 hours prior to a gig. (I'm a singer. Food restricts the diaphragm. After years of gigging I still get "nerves" too?) Anyway. I normally do Lantus, around 11pm. On a "school night". (Day job too.) But these gigs happen between 8 & 11pm so I dont basal till between mid night & 2am? (Depending on the gigs geographic location.) Granted. Some say Lantus lasts an 18 hour period? Though the "sales pitch" contradicts & says 24 hours... ;) So if I drop on the odd ocaision when I roll in after a gig to the mid 4s or around 3.5? I can hover there for ages.. Though, there is no way I'm going to do Lantus at 4mmol then retire to bed at around 3am..:stop: Thought I'd add, get the BS respectable first.... [/QUOTE]
