[QUOTE="EngineerMe, post: 1604851, member: 394476"] Hi there! Just trying to get some advice on whats been going on with my blood sugars! Pretty much everyday for the last couple weeks, before I go to sleep, my blood sugar has rocketed up. I use the Libre and its the same pattern every day. I eat dinner around 7-8pm (quite big meal), my blood sugar peaks (around 10mmol) within an hour or so then drops to a minimum around 5 mmol/l at 10pm. Even if I eat nothing more, it then rises and rises to 13 + mmol/l around 11pm when I want to go to bed. I then end up doing a few additional units of novorapid to bring it back down so I'm not high all night. I do levemir 8:30 am in the morning and around 8:30 pm at night. If I go to bed on a reasonable number the levemir keeps my blood sugars pretty level over night, with maybe a slight drop. I'm a bit puzzled, because if I just wasn't doing enough novorapid with dinner, why would I peak, go down then go back up again? I tried increasing novorapid ratio one day but ended up going hypo at the minimum point. :grumpy: Any advice would be greatly appreciated, let me know if some pictures of my trends would be of more use! Cheers! :) [/QUOTE]
