hi I have a question regarding my long acting insulin. Keep in mind I eat dinner early evening so that insulin has totally run out by bed time. And I've been doing it over a long period of time so it's not just a 1 off. Anyway I started off on 14 units and my bedtime was coming down by around 5mmols at night. I was waking up in good numbers but didn't wanna have to go to bed On around 10 every night. (Which my nurse suggests) So over the past few months I've slowly been lowering it one unit at a time. I'm finally got down to 9 units!! And last night I went to bed on 9.2 and was still 4.7 when I woke up! If I have much less I might as well not even be diabetic lol
Also what numbers do other type ones go to bed on?? Do you generally wake up the same in the morning? My goal has been to lower my a1c so this is something that will help!
