Hi everyone,
I need a bit of help.
I've recently started low-carbing and need some advice as to what is happening with my sugars. I went to bed last night with a bs of 7 (after having a minor hypo after exercise). I then woke-up this morning at 7am feeling hypo with a BS of 3.5 but recent experience has shown me that my sugars will rise in the morning without having to do anything. So I jumped in the shower, got ready for work and then checked my bs at 8am which had risen to 8. So I shot 5 units of novorapid and munched down two rashers of bacon and two scrambled eggs. I've just checked my bs now at 10am and they've risen up to 10. Why? Usually 4 units will cover a negligible carb bfast for me.
Is it the old dawn phenomenon? Will I ever get control of this **** disease :evil:
If anyone can help me out I'd be really grateful :mrgreen:
