[QUOTE="G2ADY, post: 463813, member: 89655"] Hi Steve, Welcome, It sounds like you're still experiencing the honeymoon effect. It can last anything from weeks to even years. Basically it just means that you may still have active beta cells in your pancreas that are randomly producing insulin. This can cause a hypo if you've also injected insulin. Have you started carb counting? If not then I'd highly recommend it. It'll give you much tighter control over your blood levels. Your basal insulin ( the one you take once daily) may need adjusting if you're having regular lows. In the meantime, try having a snack before bed. It's always better to be slightly high in the night rather than low. Good luck and hope to see you around the forums more Steve [/QUOTE]
