It could possibly be that you have gone too low and had a nightime hypo. Your bodies natural instinct kicks in and what is refered to as a liver dump happens where your liver kicks in and burns off some glycogen to save you.

@MrBloominggrumpy hope this helps. There are lot of posts in the forum on dawn phenomenon

9.0.
11.2 before sleep, chased by 3 units fast-acting.
Didn't test during the night, so don't know the reasons for a 9 this morning.
Every few days I get figures like this - just to keep me on my toes, I suppose.

G'day all
This morning BG 12.8 which is the lowest one I have had since starting basal insulin. Long way to go though but a good trend downwards

 

[Robinredbreast]

Before bed 5.1
this morning 6.3
Happy Sunday guys

Hi. My blood sugar this morning at 8.15am was 7.3.
My appetite is coming back - yesterday evening I ate 2 Mediterranean style wraps filled with cheese, red sliced onion, green,yellow,red sliced capsicum peppers. And at 9p.m. I ate a Turkish Delight chocolate bar. (That's why blood sugar before bed was 16.6)

 

[MidnightStar]

8.2 today

Robinredbreast how is your finger? Just wondered how you are with healing?

It seems okay, a bit sore but no infection, so letting the fresh air get to it, thank you so much for asking.
