I am 80 years old. I am having type 2 diabetes from 30 years. I had been taking 30/70 premixed insulin of 60 units per day, 40 units before breakfast and 20 units before dinner. I get fasting bg values of about 110 to 120 mg/dl. Recently, I got hypos in the range of 50 mg/dl to 60 mg/dl, for three days continuously in the evenings. I then reduced the insulin dosage to 30+10=40 units to avoid hypos. I am afraid of reducing the insulin dosage further to avoid diabetes complications. I am very much confused about the bg values since I never had hypos like this.
