[QUOTE="Jenny15, post: 1805688, member: 196992"] Today my FBG was 7.1! And pre-meal a few hours later it was 6.1. Well chuffed, as you Brits would say. In NZ/AU we would say beaut. I'm still a wee way from not needing insulin, though. Got to get FBGs and mealtime BGs well down and stable before I and my DN want to slowly reduce my basal insulin and see what happens. Also need to reduce Metformin from 1500mg to 1000mg because that's the level where I had no bowel side effects. We'll need to make these changes separately for empirical purposes. Here's the question I posed earlier: "I have read about dawn phenomenon on this site so I understand what is thought to cause it. My BG decreases after that, which I love to see... can anyone tell me why this happens (to people in general)?" Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
