[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1425526, member: 53162"] I tend to take the view that if I run high 2 nights in a row and am pretty certain that my food/insulin has run out before bed that it's my basal which needs adjusting. Running high can be for various reasons, so exercise, stress, adrenaline, hormones, illness/infection or simply because the insulin has gone off, if you've changed your basal pen for a new one and it's still running high then you will need to look at your dose. The libre has done the same for me, so pinpointed when it's rising and shown me where I need to adjust. I will be honest I don't take it as a given that my basal dose is constant either, it changes throughout the year, more in winter, less in Summer etc, there's many reasons why you need to increase/decrease but it's seeing a pattern and knowing when to adjust.
