Morning is a struggle?!

[Swankypants77]

Hi. I'm wondering if someone could give me a good advice about my morning sugar level.

I posted a similar question earlier about sugar level one hour after eating. A lot of people gave me a great advice and reassured me to say that I don't need to check that quickly, and as long as it goes down two hours after eating it is ok.

Still it puzzles me why my level goes sky high like 15 and then every half hour after that goes down quickly and settles at 6 after two hours post eating.

Lunch time, evening meal time, its not like that. It goes as high as only 7 or 8( doing well, aren't I?),and then back to 5 or 6 two hors after eating.

Does this suggest I should inject morning bolus a lot earlier before actually eating, say 30 before to match my high sugar and insulin being most effective?
Perhaps my body is lazy in the morning?!

Could anyone help? And could anyone tell me your sugar level one hour after eating?

Thank you very much.

Ps. I eat really good low GI breakfast...

My morning wake up sugar level is really good like 5.5 or highest 7.

Thanks

I inject lantus in the morning, because that's when I first started to give myself a shot while I was in hospital.

Should I perhaps change it to night time? Like other people?

Thank you again.

If only I could get my levels to single figures I would be happy.

Seriously stop stressing about after food figures. Sounds a lot like dawn phemonenon but at post food after 2 hours of 6 I wouldnt worry.

Thank you. Yes you're right. I'm stressing myself, aren't I!?

Thank you.
