For me, tresiba is much more tolerant of delays in injecting it. For night time hypos OR hypers I tend not to trust the readings from a CGM.

Apart from the good advice above, if you defer eating after taking insulin then you need to keep an eye on the levels - sometimes the levels can suddenly fall after an hour (or after much longer). As always, the general scare is excessively high levels in the long term, but hypos are a more...
