[QUOTE="evej, post: 1782878, member: 473524"] This morning, there is a clear gradual rise in BG of approximately 4mmol/L from 10pm to 10am. I have eaten no carbs, but have given a correction bolus of 4u Humalog at 7am. Since I am now splitting my Lantus, and lantus takes 1 - 2 hours to start working, peaks in about 6 hours and lasts 18 - 24 hours, would this not suggest I'm not taking enough Lantus at night? My reasoning would be that the daytime Lantus (15u) has barely started to work (3 hours post injection), and the night time Lantus (6u) would be approximately level, but past its peak and maybe starting to tail off a bit (15 hours post injection).
