[QUOTE="hale710, post: 415356, member: 62974"] My nurse told me to eat before bed. I told her that isn't going to happen! I have a small snack (5g carb) if I'm under 6mmol/l, or 10g if I'm under 5mmol/l. She suggested a slice of toast, safe to say I have never eaten that much carb unless hypo! If you are needing to eat before bed it would indicate that your basal is too high. If course if you bolus an hour before bed you have to take into account the active insulin. For that reason I try to eat dinner at least 4 hours before bed so I don't risk hypo during the night [/QUOTE]
