Hello all. Spurred on by this forum, I have decided to get my blood glucose more strictly controlled. I'm 25 doing basal bolus regime. I have been lowcarbing since January and that made a remarkable difference to my last few hba1c's.
Recently I was noticing evening high blood levels especially before bed time almost every night (always above 10, usually around 15) even though I had totted up what is eaten for dinner with accuracy using scales! I am on levemir and always took one injection just before I went to bed. For the last week I have split the doses to he 8 units when I wake and 8 units at dinner, my blood levels before bed have now been excellent! However, for the last 2 mornings I have woken up to extremely high blood sugars, today my meter just said HI... I've not had a blood sugar that bad for over 6 years so feel so rubbish about it!
Can anyone help me with what's going on? Before I went to bed at 11pm my sugar was 7.1 however I was awake till 2 as I was watching stuff but did not feel myself going higher or having w hypo (I have good hypo awareness).
Sorry for the ramble but just haven't got a clue what is happening
