Hi, I am a teenager and I have only been diagnosed for maybe 8 months. This whole time I have been struggling to get proper sleep, because my blood sugar goes extremely high overnight and I have to wake up to go to the toilet and inject some insulin. For example, before sleep last night my bg was at 12.7, and, knowing that a normal amount of insulin wouldn’t do anything, I decided to inject 6 units. But still, I had to wake up at 3:30 in the morning with a bg of 13.8. I injected another 4.5 units in the hope it would get me back to a normal level, but when I woke up, my bg was at 11. Is there any reason why this is happening? Or is this just something that I will have to get used to for the rest of my life?
