Take it now .. you may go a little higher than normal but dont go without any. Keep a closer check on your blood levels too

hey, how you doing now after the late injection? the morning highs could be that your evening long acting is not enough, but if you are eating alot over night maybe u need a higher ratio for food. i no my self that over night i need alot less insulin but maybe you just need more. if you are also eating sugary foods late at night you could try giving an injection half an hour before eating to stop a peak in your sugars. this would then also help with insulin resistance/ sensitivity that you can get when your sugars are high, as it can take more insulin to bring you down if you have been high for a little while.

I don't think this applies if you're on a mixed insulin - I didn't realise people still used this regime - but it is a lot less flexible than multiple daily injections (otherwise known as basal-bolus).
