[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 933537, member: 17713"] Good. (Sort off!!) well done on testing over night too. Keep testing today as we need to see if you go up higher because of less basal last night. This would then indicate that you need a split dose and perhaps giving a shot in the morning. This can only be determined with 2 hourly tests daytime. In all honesty as you are still high at night pre bed time it looks like your basal levemir could be running out around tea time. In which case having a few units in the morning would help this. Keep checking today and please report back daytime levels. We don't want you just to start a morning dose without knowing day levels as this would be dangerous. You need to speak to your DSN. Most DSN's are contactable by phone and can run things through by phone.. However she would need to know your levels for day time too... You are still dropping 9ml over night and that is way too much of a drop. Dangerously so. If I were in your shoes I would be you looking at lowering the basal more possibly down to 8 at night and perhaps 5 in the morning. At some point you are going up too high before bed and we need to see when this starts etc. you need to test two hourly for daytime to see next steps... You are doing well.. We don't want you just to jump in as your safety is paramount here. [/QUOTE]
