[QUOTE="chrisbug, post: 2415139, member: 532065"] Hi, Thanks for your replies. So skipping dinner is something I really worry about, I've greatly reduced my carb/food intake, and I'm continuously hungry, I immediately finished my lunch today and was still hungry! but I aim to have my evening meal at around 4 hours before bed, and tends to be sweet potatoes, or reheated brown pasta, with fish or chicken, vegetables, that kind of thing. Gone are the days of pizza! I'd considered the liver dump with the stress of waking, but I have been woken with a rising BS. Also I've once completely slept through a load of alarms and my BS has just carried on climbing from when the first alarm went off. So I would generally say that the stress of waking is adding to the problem, not causing it. I think light exercise before bed would, without adjusting my mealtime dose drop my BS by about 2 mmol/L? Which would send me low, but I'll explore adjusting my mealtime dose, and see what happens with a walk, or time on the bike trainer. I like the idea of splitting my tresiba, I don't really want to do this without running it past my DN, as it stands now, I always inject tresiba just before bed and fear that I may forget to take an earlier dose. I guess that overnight it's harder for me to lower my BS than in the day? I'll definitely act on your suggestions (that I'm comfortable with) and report back here! Thanks again [/QUOTE]
