I'd start by looking at your basal, ratios don't often change, but my basal dose can be sensitive to lifestyle changes. I follow the calculation in Gary Scheiner's Think Like a Pancreas book - don't eat of inject within a few hours of bed, then for every 1.6mmol/l change in overnight levels adjust your basal by 10%. If your basal is wrong, everything else will be, so deffo start with that first.</blockquote>
