[QUOTE="CHIET1, post: 1460808, member: 368096"] Hi, I split my Basal into two injections per day, therefore I take half before bed and half first thing in the morning. This works really well for me. Also, make sure your basal injection is in a fatty tissue area. We are advised to use our thighs, but in most ppl there is a lot more muscle in this area. I use my bum cheeks, changing sides often. Perhaps you can discuss these options with your diabetes team, it might resolve your night time hypos'. Also, with smaller insulin doses comes small blood sugar movements, so it is safer. Look up Dr. Bernstein's law of small numbers, best bit of diabetes advice I have read so far. [/QUOTE]
