[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2095944, member: 372717"] I've been asked to do a fasting blood test for cholesterol, sometimes but not usually.... Personally, I'd probably have my lantus as normal and just not eat or inject before the (early) test. Have a glucotab or something if you feel low when you get up and don't panic if you're not quite fasting when you do the test.... If your lantus is correct then it shouldn't be an issue, and if it is an issue then you've got a good case for getting your insulin amounts reviewed.... Good luck Ellie [/QUOTE]
