night

Was wondering if anyone can offer advice. So I take 7units in morning and 8units in evening of levemir. I take 1unit of novorapid for pretty much anything I eat. At lunch this seems to raise my levels from 4.5-5 to around 6-6.5. This is with a small lunch. For my evening meal I take 1 unit and...

Hi all Long time type 1, Night tine can still be a mystery even after all these years Generally higher than ideal at bedtime (fear of hypo) Higher in morning, not always aware of hypos at night but in recent years understand bit more about liver function Libre is allowing me to see more about...

Hello, my name is Rob and I'm 24, average build. Thanks for taking the time to read this. My blood sugar levels are usually 9-10mmol and that's normal for me as less than that tends to makes me feel low. My fast acting insulin is novarapid, 10 carbs per 1 unit. My long acting insulin is...

Good morning! I have a question, again about nocturnal hypoglycemia. Yesterday evening I had a relatively light dinner (21:00). Just before bed (00:20) I measured my blood glucose, 93 mg / dL. Around 4:20 in the morning I woke up and measured glucose again, 108 mg / dL. Could the increase in...

I have my first ever nightshift tonight, 1900-0700. Can anyone give me some hints as to how to manage my pump settings? Normally I’m asleep :D I usually run a fairly steady rate through the night, this programme is tried and tested for this particular phase of my cycle and keeps me dead level...

Hi all, should my dose of tresiba hd my blood sugar flat or slowly drop it over the cause of the day or night? At 11pm my sugars were 10. Woke up at 7 and they where 5. I am seeing through and inbetween meals that my sugars drop slowly. Should I be aiming for flat, and if so should I continue...

Dear all, I feel a bit confused with what's going on with our daughter's (she's 9 years old) glucose levels. Can't find explanation - doctors can't explain it too. :) The matter is her glucose goes up as soon as she falls asleep. It can be 4.4, or 5.6, or 6.1, but 5 minutes after she fell asleep...

Just wondering if anyone has any feedback on the Hypoband devices available which claim to alert you to nighttime hypos? My 10yr old has nearly 5 nighttime hypos a week & never wakes or realises he is low. We have tweaked his insulin levels & tried everything but even his consultant is...

Slept though until 5am last night! Hooray! I'm normally up about 3 or 4 times during the night, but last night was different. Not only did I not wake until 5, I also had a lovely dream where I was getting thinner, and could actually feel that, my stomach didn't ache, my bad knee didn't wake me...
