[QUOTE="TashT1, post: 2343001, member: 526953"] I cycle between 4 or 5 brands so it could have been that. I drank the same brand all 3 nights. Finding out carb counts for wine is next to impossible. But this something to look out for. I usually don’t see a change between weekday & weekend readings even though I take my Lantus later. My morning readings are usually the most predictable. For example wake up on 6mmol, eat a low carb breakfast of 7g, no fast acting required. 2hrs later it’s either barely moved up or slightly lower depending on activity. Test at lunchtime & I’m somewhere in the 5’s. This was my pattern until 10 days ago & now those 5’s & 6’s are 7’s & 8’s. This coincided with a lot of stress so I’m hoping it will settle down soon. I’m really not keen on injecting at night, I find it uncomfortable at the best of times & it’s not uncommon for me to fall asleep on the sofa before 10. I’d end up taking an evening dose at inconsistent times. But at least I have some ideas for talking to my nurse, it’s never useful to start those conversations unprepared. [/QUOTE]
