[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 592377, member: 94045"] I agree with Jack, and would add that the higher you are at bedtime, the higher you will be in the morning in general. Your bedtime reading is a little high and could be due to what you ate and drank for your evening meal and/or supper. For the time being you might like to aim for 6 and under at bedtime and morning. When did you do your morning test? it is best to do it as soon as you get up. If you get up, shower or potter about first your levels are likely to have increased even though you haven't eaten anything because your liver could have dumped glucose into your system. This is known as Liver Dump or Dawn Phenomenon and there are plenty of threads about this on the forums as well as information on the net via Google. [/QUOTE]
