    Somogyi effect is it real.

    I suggest you eat your last meal at 5pm. Test every 2 hours at least till bedtime... at bedtime test. If your acting time (and no corrections) it should show by 11pm that your active insulin is zero... you need to wake up and test at 3am at least. Or get a libre... you need to have normal...

    Lots of hypos...

    I will go back to the very basics here: You do need to get back to see a consultant at hospital. You say you arent testing that much... you may be able to get a Libre...... As your lifestyle is not conducive to exact(ish) timings of your current basal.. perhaps switching to Tresiba could...

    Is this too much insulin?

    Have you ever checked your basal rates...my first reaction was to considdr that you may be needing more bolus to counteract getting up. It could well be that moving from evening to morning for you basal could help with any night hypos.

    Post pregnancy type 1

    Was it a hospital nurse or GP nurse you were trying to phone? Have you done a DAFNE course? Generally if you are lowering carbs, it can also mean that you need to lower basal as well... Ie if you were on (just as an example) 20 bolus and 20 basal... it would be working out that you were...

    Fluctuating symptoms

    Listening is not necessarily acting.... listening allows people to form clues as to the other persons reasoning... and to then identify if they wish to act, or not.

    Fluctuating symptoms

    Bread, is bread I'm afraid... but if you didnt have rising hba1c then your pancreas would be dealing with the carbs in them... and your blood levels and hba1c would be in the normal bracket. What would your mum rather you eat than so much fruit? Have you any access to a blood meter at all to...

    Fluctuating symptoms

    Your diet has quite alot of bread type of carby foods... but I am not a teenager... but I wpuld certainly be listening to my mum if she suggested change? What has mum been suggesting as alternatives? Have you lost weight? This can be sign of T1 although your levels are not the typical T1 on...

    Fluctuating symptoms

    With T1 diabetes most of us would have had an hba1c much higher at diagnosis. Some children are at risk of T2 diabetes and it maybe that it could be worthwhile talking to GP and asking whether they think you could be nearing any confirmed diagnosis of diabetes. I dont know your height, weight...

    My Symptoms Persist

    Didnt see the veg listed, sorry.. However, I still believe you are needing to have more foods with some veg at each meal and variety... Nobody could possibly say you look to have diabetes from this post... Please relax and live... and then give us some readings in mornings after a nights...
