[QUOTE="juliekem, post: 558419, member: 47477"] Hi - I keep reading about this - I too seem to get higher blood glucose readings in the morning than the night before (I buy my own test strips and test at least twice a day.) One night I couldn't sleep so did a bg reading every time I went to the bathroom - I found that my blood glucose went up gradually all night - there was no "liver dump" in the early hours!!! I asked my GP about this and was told that it was normal - the dawn phenomenon is mis-called because people test first thing in the morning (and not several times in the night like I did.) Has anyone else tried testing like this? I would be interested to find out if my GP is correct (I haven't a lot of faith in her although she is nice!) [/QUOTE]
