[QUOTE="kegstore, post: 120823, member: 16530"] Hypos at night are just the worst for me, mainly because I no longer wake up for them. As I'm also a very heavy sleeper, even my pump alarm has no chance of waking me to do something about it. After a bad one I might wake in another part of the house many hours later, with a trail of destruction as evidence, and a bg level of 25+ (record was 33) - classic rebound hyperglycaemia and extremely unpleasant in itself. DP affects everybody (it can be observed in non-diabetics) to different degrees. Before I had my basal profile nailed I would regularly wake to a bg reading of 10-14, now it's more like 4-5 but only because I ramp up the basal rate from about 2am. Still need to keep an eye on it though, as with everything about this lovely condition, nothing stays the same for very long! [/QUOTE]
