[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 934104, member: 17713"] I also do a 2 unit bolus as soon as I wake. 3 units if I'm at home that day not working. I think we need to see how your bloods react tomorrow morning and afternoon. Basically you need to test when you get up and at least 2 hours after you get up and 2 hourly after that as well. If you get a sharp rise 2 hours after getting up then you may well need a bolus injection in the morning like Tim and me. Tim has his with his breakfast. I'm odd... I do not eat breakfast or lunch but I still must bolus when I wake as well. It sounds horrendous, but it isn't. You will get a routine. Its early days still for you. Tomorrow morning if you decide to give yourself 6 tonight. Give 6 tomorrow morning and keep testing... It will all click into place in a few days..... It will need fine tuning. Do ask for a 1/2 unit pen for both your basal and bolus.. And try to get pens that are different colour!! It helps!! You will get there. You are doing well. Please don't worry if you go slightly higher overnight or tomorrow. Tim is wise. Robert too. You will get there... Please report back this evenings levels and tomorrows levels etc... [/QUOTE]
