[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2315221, member: 372207"] To my thinking, most of the Lantus is likely to have ended up where it belongs, doing its thing with fatty tissue to make it work for 20 hours or so. If my thinking is correct (and it's only speculating!), you're now having a reduced dose of Lantus in your system, which nicely fits the waking up higher than usual. But again, I'm only thinking out loud here, please don't take my words as gospel. In my experience, the one time I had a Lantus low and was sure I wouldn't wake up again, the reaction to the Lantus was a lot quicker than Novorapid would have acted. So it seems there is more to it than Lantus 'only' acting like a bolus insulin. [/QUOTE]
