[QUOTE="janabelle, post: 117005, member: 7788"] Hi again, something I just remembered. I have experienced probs overnight when I've eaten kidney beans with mexican- avoid it like the plague now. Forgot to mention I'm also on Hypurin Porcine Isophane, I also split the dose 22 units 8.30am and 12 units 9-10pm. I stayed on a rapid-acting analogue for a while, but find since I've changed to porcine neutral (short-acting pork), it lasts a bit longer. The result of this is that if I take a 3-4 unit dose with breakfast, I rarely have to jab with lunch-which is fairly low-carb, usually home-made leek or brocolli soup, and a couple of oatcakes. I presume the same happens in the eve, that my Neutral lasts a bit overnight. I am lucky that I don't have any dawn phenomenon issues, but as I said I know of someone who has, she's also on animal insulins. I will try and get in touch with her and see if she has any ideas for you. Bananas do push my BG level up a lot, the subject of bananas and BG has come up recently on this forum. If your morning BG being so high is a regular thing then it's probably unlikely to be the fault of the poor wee banana. Jus :) [/QUOTE]
