[QUOTE="evej, post: 1783894, member: 473524"] So, yesterday and overnight, was the first time EVER I was in (mostly) target from 3:30pm to 6:30am!!!!! In the late afternoon and evening i had to prop up my blood sugar several times with 5 to 10g of carbs, and at night I dropped from 11.9 at bedtime to 8.4 - a drop of 4mmo/L. I took 15u Lantus in the morning and 7u at evening. Sooooo... my reasoning is that I need to drop back to 6u Lantus in the evening, and MAY need less during the day. I took 14u Lantus this morning, and will take 6u tonight. Thoughts? Does the 14u I took this morning affect what i should take in the evening? Also, should I try eating a carb for breakfast? Clearly I start rising BEFORE breakfast, so don't think a carb would make a difference, but I have had suggestions to try adding a small carb. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
