Now I have one issue that I still need to resolve and that is my mornings.When I seen my consultant on Tues I was telling him that my bg remains stable overnight but from 6am each morning it starts to rise. I go to bed say 6 or 7 then when I check at 6am it will still be 6 or 7 but by 9am it's risen to 10 or 11. This is every morning even when I'm not getting up and am just taking it easy. What I've been doing is taking 2u correction but he has told me to stop doing this as it's dangerous. Now I see his point and I know DAFNE doesn't recommend insulin without food but.. It's really been working well for me.He suggested increasing my morning basal from 12u to 14u but I take it around 8am so the rise has already kicked in by then. The only thing I can think of is to eat but I'm not a big breakfast eater.Has anyone experienced this and how do you handle it?Im on mdi of Novorapid and Levimer. I split my Levimer 16u at 10pm(ish) and now 14u at 8am(ish).</blockquote>
