Hello,
I have this problem first time since i am back on insulin after honeymoon period. My morning readings are usually in 5's (never go over 6,5 mmol/l), but in last ten days everything changed. My readings started to be higher than usual, and in last 4 days it's over 8,0 and this morning it was 9,3 mmol/l. I wrote my readings before bedtime, at 3 a.m. and in the morning in last three days, and it looks like this :
Saturday : 11.30 p.m. - 5,9 mmol/l
3 a.m. - 5,2 mmol/l
7 a.m. - 8,7 mmol/l
Sunday : 11 p.m. - 5,6 mmol/l
3 a.m. - 5,0 mmol/l
8 a.m. - 8,4 mmol/l
Monday : 11 p.m. - 5,3 mmol/l
3 a.m. - 4,5 mmol/l
8 a.m. - 9,3 mmol/l
My before bedtime readings are normal, but obviously the problem is in the early morning hours.I am on pens (Lantus and Apidra) so i tried to rise my basal insulin, but it didn't help at all, and I had hypos during the day, so it's not solution. Are there any other ways to fix this problem or i should contact my diabetes team ?
