[QUOTE="azure, post: 1424447, member: 39639"] [USER=390513]@Rach85[/USER] That sounds like it's possible the hypos are connected to her basal insulin dosage. Perhaps you could ask her team about that and discuss if a small reduction in the Levemir might be something to try. If she's going low overnight then that's far more liley to be her basal. Also, as yours as you halved her breakfast bolus and she still hypoed then that sounds like it might be related to basal too. Do you have a half unit pen for the Levemir? Also, bear in mind that erratic sugars are very common during the honeymoon period and these can cause lows. If she always has a low after breakfast then you could pre-empt that with a snack. When I was in y honeymoon period, my own pancreas often used to make some insulin late morning and send me low, so I used to eat a biscuit or some fruit. [/QUOTE]
