I would take a small snack of about 15 carbs before going to bed myself but I tend to err on the high blood glucose side. How long ago did you last eat? When did you take your evening dose of metformin?

Morning,
Got through the night ok, checked my BS at 4.45am it was 6.3 and again when I woke finally at 10am, BS was 6.8 so they obviously (for me anyway) go up over night which seems a little strange! I last ate and took my metformin at 7.30pm last night. Is the rise normal? Arn't they meant to go down?

Very normal for someone with Type 2 on Metformin. The moderators have asked us to ask questions in another thread of the forum. "Ask a question about diabetes" is a great place. You will get many more answers there. Have a great day.
