[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2141464, member: 21149"] I agree your Basal may need balancing. A rough way of doing this is to fast for several hours and see which way the BS trends. The job of the Basal is to balance the continuous output of glycogen from the liver. The trend whilst fasting will tell you whether to increase of decrease the Basal. BTW although many do split their Basal I'm not a great fan of it as it makes balancing more complex. I don't split my Levemir but when it runs low later in the day (as it only lasts 18 hours) I just tweak my Bolus up at the evening meal; this saves one injection. [/QUOTE]
