My husband who's been type 1 for 30+ years is having real difficulty in controlling his blood sugar. It seems to be most evenings around 9-12pm his blood sugar drops, the lowest was 1.3! often between 5-2. He then has 1 or 2 glucose tablets, a banana and a scone to get back to 6-7. The next morning he wakes up at 7am and his sugars are anything between 15-20. the rest of the day he constantly tests and doesn't eat until it's lower than 10. It doesn't seem to matter what we try different it happens the same every night, he has a good evening meal at 6pm with plenty of carbs, and takes his insulin at that time. 15 quick reacting and 15 long reacting. Has anyone got any idea what we can try ??
