[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2460421, member: 372207"] You need to connect this info to how long before you injected and ate, and to what you ate. The 3-4 am ones, may suggest your basal is a tad high, but this also depends on when you last ate and injected, we don't know at what time you go to bed. It's all about finding patterns. For instance, I know I drop when swimming at about 35 minutes from entering the water. So that's when I do a check on my bg, and eat something to prevent a hypo if needed. I swim late morning, two days a week. However, if I would only tell my consultant I regularly go low at around 11:30am, without mentioning the swimming, she would have no way of guessing those lows are connected to something in my daily routine. What about keeping a diary, noting insulin, food, activity and blood glucose on a timeline? Log insulin doses and either carbs or simply the kind of food you had, so you can find those patterns.
