10 6.8
11 6.7

They look a great set of results! 🙂

What time are you getting these 4's and 3's? I'd be inclined to make a small decrease in the basal rate from an hour before these lower levels start appearing.

you don't need to tweak your basals much at all......great set of results! 🙂 if you are edging towards hypo at a set time probably best to lower your basal an hour or two before your expected low.
 
Thanks 12pm finished with BG 7.0 🙂:D

yes think il need to reduce at 3am by .25 and test early hours sun am and take from there
