Your body prepares for the day by giving you extra glucose for whatever you do when you get up the liver natrually produces the extra and it is called dawn phenonemon.

It can happen as well during the day during and after strenuous exercise, that is called a liver dump.

Hope this helps, there have been threads about this, use the search function, to read these

No probs Steve, glad I could help.
Do have a read around, I have learnt so much. And there are some really great people on here with the experience and the confusion of what diabetes can do to you.
Keep asking, keep posting. Join in!
