    Checking BG during the night?

    Thanks for the reply - I am splitting my insulin at present 50/50. Now just need to resolve it so the morning / night BGs are acceptable. Just recently started waking up high and trying to get this resolved! Once I correct the morning high, the daytime levels are stable.

    Checking BG during the night?

    I've dropped the Levemir another 1U tonight just to see if it stops me needing to top up my BG at around 3-5AM It's now 2:40 (took Levemir at midnight) At 23:00, BG was 6, Midnight 8.4, and now its gone up to 12.9 .. so have taken 2U of Novorapid to bring this down. Lets see how the readings...

    Checking BG during the night?

    Thanks for the replies so far - I tested this again last night with slightly less Levemir to stop me dropping earlier, but the result hasn't been great to be honest. I still seem to be going low between 3-5 AM, but even if I correct this and don't drop under 4.5 or so, with less Levemir my BG...

    Checking BG during the night?

    Yeah, maybe I'll try and set just one alarm per night, different time each night. As I take my Levemir late as per OP (Midnight) I think I might aim for 8 AM or so to test - as 2/3 AM I'm usually still awake, about to go to bed!

    Checking BG during the night?

    I think I'll stick to water - if I have a large mug of coffee at 2-3 AM in the morning I probably won't fall asleep for ages :lol: :lol:

    Checking BG during the night?

    Actually I use 2 phones as an alarm, but manage to miss both of them, only catch 1 per night somehow! I'll give it another go tonight, see what is causing these annoying highs in the morning !!(well, more like afternoon .. But waking time!)

    Checking BG during the night?

    This might sound like a stupid question - but recently I've been having horrible sugars when waking up in the morning - anywhere between 12 to 18 - obviously far too high. I've managed to check a few times during the nights (around 6AM or so usually) to see what's going on , ie. if the Levemir...
