[QUOTE="TROUBR, post: 19813, member: 7865"] This is probably going to seem like a silly question but it was something that struck me yesterday and I still can't work out the answer. I am still suffering from being higher in the morning than I was when I went to bed and am currently trying different things to fix this.Now as I understand it this is probably because when I was asleep I went a bit low and my liver helped to correct my by dumping any stored glucose from the day. Now if this is what happens at night why can't it do the same during the day and prevent me having a hypo in the daytime? :? Also I read somewhere that this dawn effect is not so likely on the new insulin types like Lantus (which I am on) so not sure what is actually happening to me! See - a very silly question and I have most probably completely misunderstood the whole way it works. Louise [/QUOTE]
