[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1561416, member: 94045"] The DP can happen at any time throughout the day and night. With many people it only starts after they have risen and started their day. I have never had an overnight DP - ever, even when first diagnosed my overnight levels were in the 5s and flat. Mine started within half an hour of getting up and then got all mixed up with my breakfast readings! I was still too high by lunch time. I resolved it by having a coffee with cream within 10 minutes of getting up and nothing else to eat until lunch time. That worked for me. It is our bodies regulating themselves. As far as I am concerned, doing a FBG test is a waste of time in many cases, and a waste of strips. It teaches you nothing. [/QUOTE]
