What is considered a morning high?

[Dan_Mason]

Hi all.
I've noticed over the last few weeks my bg seems to be higher in the morning than it is for the rest of the day. I'm waking up with a bg in between 6.7-8. Is this something to worry about? I inject 2 units before breakfast and it's usually down between the 4-5 by the time I have lunch.
