Hello!
I’m quite newly diagnosed and have been on insulin since August. I take Lantus twice a day and Fiasp for meals ... and am getting frustrated at the dawn phenomenon.
I take Lantus before bed (not at an exact time) and when I wake up. On my Libre graph I can see I stay steady until I wake up, when it rises. I need an extra half or full unit with breakfast to avoid going out of range (8mmol). This morning I haven’t eaten breakfast at my usual time and I’ve gone up to 8.4 (with a steady rise arrow).
Does anyone know if it would help to change the times I split my lantus, or if there’s anything else I can do?
Thanks!
