[QUOTE="lcarter, post: 720697, member: 93162"] Morning. I am in a similar situation to you in regards to this. My bgs can go up 5-8mml in the morning- you are right it is demotivating. I spoke to my dsn about this too and I also don't eat after my tea at night and I wake up pretty normal. But before breakfast its shot up. I have to correct upon waking, I use my normal correction dose which is 1 unit brings me down 2mml. I then check it pre breakfast (either an omelette or weetabix) take my normal bolus for breakfast and a few hours after that my bgs are normal again. I will not correct if I am active though (learnt that the hard way!) Otherwise I go too low. Hope that helps. . Either way you have my empathy :) [/QUOTE]
