Mini basal test this morning, and it seems to be going OK. These were only done with Freestyle Libre - not blood.

Woke up with a reading of 7.1 at 7:15am
6.6 at 7:28
6.2 at 0:25
6.1 at 9:40
6.0 at 10:20
5.8 at 10:45
5.8 at 11:10
5.9 at 11:40
6.7 at 11:59 (but I had just had a cup of tea with sweeteners so not strictly a fasting basal test)

There's an overall slightly declining trend but overall pretty stable there, but I would've thought that's normal for a fasting basal test isn't it?

That's on 16 units of Tresiba taken at 10pm and no food since 11pm (I had a slight dip before heading to bed that was trending towards a hypo so just a little bit of food to counter that)
