Morning folks.
I’m 60% sure my question relates to my basal insulin. I’ve been just over a year as type 1 and my pancreas has now stopped helping all together. My insulin needs have really increased.
I’m currently taking 12 units levemir at 10am and then another 8 at 10pm.
However, every night, even when I carb count perfectly (well, I’m not heaps out) my bg levels rise up to 14/15!!
I’m not in range before meals so a lot of correction doses and I’m trying to bring this down.
However, do you think it’s my morning basal or night basal that needs to increase to stop this 11pm rise?
Im just so miserable with my numbers just now they are so high all the time I’m knackered
Thanks for any help, really appreciate it.
