[QUOTE="Alison54321, post: 1800665, member: 472744"] I just switched from a split dose of Lantus to a split dose of Levemir. I was injecting about 7.30 - 8 pm, and my blood sugar would drop low at about 12.30 am. Then, I'd correct it, and it would start shooting up into the strastosphere. Unfortunately because I recently got freestyle libre I ended up getting not enough sleep as I lay awake watching this strange phenomenon. I find Levemir less aggressive, interestingly my blood glucose does still drop a bit at 11.30 pm, now, but not enough to cause a hypo. On my freestyle libre daily patterns graph, with the Levemir, and I've only being using it for about ten days, but the variation from the median at night is almost certainly less, so it's less erratic at night. I don't know anything about Tresiba, but I have definitely found the switch from Lantus to Levemir has kept more or less the same patterns as before, but they are less extreme. Less hypers, and less hypos. That could just be me getting better at adjusting with information from the freestyle libre, but I don't think it is, I thinks it the Levemir. [/QUOTE]
