Good morning all
Usually my glucose levels start to rise at about 6am. ( The glucose liver dump I believe )
I take 50units of long acting Toujeo, 10 units of lumjev quick acting and 2000mg long acting metformin first thing without food.
Then 2 more insulin injections throughout the day with food.
I can't eat breakfast as Id throw up and don't eat usually until midday by which time my sugars are usually in the green. (using a freestyle librelink)
I was T2 until covid got me 3 and a half years ago and now classed as T1
I find that I am constantly trying to get the levels down all morning and sitting at a desk 3 days a week does not help
I wonder does anyone have a solution to the dawn effect or even suggestions for making it less of a problem
Thanks in advance
