A little more information would help. Are you a T1 or T2, and which diabetes meds are you on?
And do the peaks coincide with when you ate?
I’m type 1 diabetic and currently using tresiba and novorapid.
It looks like you have a "Dawn Phenomenon" - blood sugars begin rising before you get up.
No that was breakfast. My bloods usually decline before waking up. Or steady.
What was your breakfast? That could be the root of your problem. Too many carbs for the amount of insulin, which if it is, you either need to reduce the carbs in your breakfast or revisit your insulin doses.
Uhm well, I gave myself 6units for a 150ml glass of orange juice and a bowl of Cinnamon grahams.
But increasing the insulin doesn’t stop my elevated bloods. In fact it only causes a hypo later in the day. (Roughly 9 o’clock).

Your breakfast is mostly sugar. Orange juice is used to treat hypos as it raises blood sugar fast, and cinnamon Graham’s are 75% carbs too. If you had less sugar and add a bit of protein you might get smoother blood sugarsBut increasing the insulin doesn’t stop my elevated bloods. In fact it only causes a hypo later in the day.

Keep up that sort of sugar intake and you’ll probably end up with double diabetes? Resistant to exogenous insulin
Sorry, not judging. Personal choices and all that. Just seems reckless.
