[QUOTE="Levy, post: 1640670, member: 31447"] [USER=53162]@Juicyj[/USER] I used Tresiba for over two months and saw no change in the nighttime spikes, but they disappeared as soon as I moved back to Levemir. My injections are taken at 8.30am (14u) and 7.30pm (16u). I have been keeping an extensive diary as you said. All food, insulin, exercise and everything else of interest was included and my consultant has also seen this but neither of us have been able to come up with any explanation so far. I will continue with it though. The hypos are post-meals and should hopefully disappear now I've tweaked my I:C ratio slightly. Hypos are always treated by either a swig of fruit juice or 2/3 jelly babies. I've been wanting to do day-time basal testing, but as I suffer from DP I can't NOT take a correction dose in the morning. As you're supposed to not have any bolus active, I wasn't sure how to do it.
