After almost a year on insulin, I found out something strange. And thought I ask here, because I am kind of confused.
It seems like I can increase my dosage in the evening, of fast acting insulin when eating, without getting a hypo.
But if I use same ratio in the morning or start of the day I seem to get a hypo. So I have to decrease my dosage at the first half of the day, and slowely increase it at evening.
Does anyone now why that is. I’ve heard of dawn phenomen, but the thing is, I do not get high in the evening if I do not eat, but I still have to take more insulin if I eat. Don’t know if this is normal, or not.
Any thoughts or insight are much appreciated
