I just don't get it, every morning I get up with blood sugar levels at 11 doesn't mater what I eat or do its just 11, its not the meter that changes during the day, night before ate nearly nothing, last night it was like a shark attack, finishing up Christmas stuff, this morning 11, does anyone have a clue why?
 
No idea Simon!

Have you ever set alarm(s) to check during the night and see what happens when?
 
Thanks good idea will try that tonight, might wake up the Mrs as well lol
 
Are you on the pump? also are you checking the fat and protein you are eating the previous evening?

Hi Megga no I am not on a pump just Lantus and Humalog insulin, to be honest I haven't checked the fat or protein content which I will, but the uncanny thing is I doesn't seem to make any difference, I know I over ate and I mean by far last night, and other nights nothing at all, odd
 
I don't know the answer but maybe you're dreaming about black forest gateaux during the night and that's pushing you up. 😛

it could be the dawn thingy. The pump helped me control min. but I still found that my morning B/S were high sometimes, I couldn't understand it as I made sure no carbs after a certain time. Then after reading a few posts on here, I found out that fats and protein raises your B/S over a long time. so the boiled eggs or cheese I snacked on. I find now if I have cheese I extend my bolus over 4-5 hours and its fine.
