[QUOTE="RuWo, post: 2144027, member: 512126"] thank you all for your help! I think I am in the mindset of a breakfast setting you up for the day, I can go without but I do get hungry when I remember I have not eaten! I made a batch of mini veg/ egg fritattas yesterday, added 2 tblsp of flour and a big dollop yogurt and a little milk so not completely carb free but didn't put any cheese in. So far so good, BGs were 4.9@6.20am (ate 3 and bolused a little), 6.7@9.10 and 7.5@now so seeing a bit of a gradual rise but nowhere near what it was with carby breakfast. i'll do a few days of this then look to adjust my morning basal. I did a 4 day CGM a few years ago as my hospital team wanted to check my dawn phenomonon, but it turned out not to be there during the time i did it. Instead of trying to fix a dawn phenomon we tweaked my basal to the ups I had over the morning and evening. I did get better control and had another drop in hba1c, although my latest hospital team (have had yearly changes in staff at the hospital) say this is chasing the BGs and the basal should be more at a steady constant rate through the day rather than rising at certain times like I had it. Since they said to change my basals though I have been struggling to control the BGs and stagnating on the hba1c. From the fasting-testing i'm tweaking and I can see slowly my basals are going back to the rises. [/QUOTE]
