I’m a plonker and I forgot to take my basal last night and didn’t realise until I woke up this morning.

I usually take 24 units of abasaglar before sleeping but didn’t last night.

Any advice?

In your position I just take extra bolus all day, playing catch up. Not great but it (sort of) works.

Keep testing.
