[QUOTE="Spiker, post: 513590, member: 102150"] To figure out your correct basal rate you need a day of fasting. If you were still eating a lot of carbs I would even lay off the evening meal the night before, certainly no late night meal. Check your BG frequently during the day, every 2 hours probably. You are looking to see if your BG is rising (or falling) without food and without [bolus] insulin. I would guess that with your high basal dose of 70 and high carb / calorie intake, you may find your BG drops, suggesting your basal is too high - just guessing. It helps if you know your ISF as you can then guess how much to increase or decrease your basal rate by. [/QUOTE]
