Hi,

Do you use Lantus perchanc? Would you be halfway to two-thirds down the barrel?
If so, change the cartridge before the next dose then see how it goes..

How long have you been using the current Lantos pen?
What were your BGs like overnight before you woke up?

More to the point. how are they now?
 
If you can't get things under control then don't hesitate to phone 111.

If you're ill then here are sick day rules from Leicester diabetes centre.

I switched from humulin to levemir, and was miserable for a few days, my body literally didnt register there was any levemir in my system. I quickly got changed back to humulin. Really dont like levemir. You may be the same?
