I take 10 units of glargine insulin (slow acting ) at 11am.What should my blood sugars be when I go to bed at 12am,I'm currently going to bed at between 12/14.Sometimes when I wake up (8a.m ish) I'm in range below 9 and sometimes I'm about 10/11 thank you for any help/advice - Leigh

How come my blood sugars are so erratic when I'm following all the rules

I''m type 1, I go to bed at between 14-15 at about midnight. by 4-5am my blood has dropped to around 4(too low for me ) and I have to have sweets to keep right till I get up around 9.my bedtime snack is usually 2-3 weetabix,semi skimmed and sugar on top.very frustrating would I be better having...

Why is my sugar levels falling too low by morning time,last night bedtime 14.6 this morning 4.9 and I didn't take any fast acting insulin before bed.i take 14 units long acting insulin at around 11am.

Hi guys is it best to go to bed in range 5-8mlor just above, I take 8?-10?ml of long lasting glargine at around 11a.m.When I go to bed in range I drop low during the night,any help would be appreciated thanks

Right can I get a straight answer anyone plz,if I'm drinking say 5-6 pints of lager between 5p.m and 11p.m how much and when should I take my Novorapid fast acting insulin TIA

Just pull it quickly Elliot99 I do mate

Cheers kennyA

If you were enjoying say 6 bottles of lager on a evening should you inject fast acting insulin to keep your sugars in range ? Or will sugars come down overnight.also should I take my slow acting insulin at t time before drinking T I A

Should you be in range at bed time or would your long lasting insulin taken at t time make you go low during the night
