[QUOTE="bellabella, post: 936446, member: 117614"] What dose of basal insulin are you on? Waking up with high bg despite going to bed with reasonable sugars is consistent with dawn phenomenon.... Have you had this before? The alternative is that you are coming down with something which may be causing the high sugars too If you're not feeling up to eating still it might be the perfect time to do some basal testing first of all so you can address that and make sure you're on the right dose The thing about lchf also is that even though you're not eating much carbs, in a low carb meal the protein needs to be taken into account when bolusing As long as you're keeping a close eye on your sugars and ketones you should be fine from a dka point of view [/QUOTE]
