I'm guessing yes, but just wanted a quick check in! I have been off my evening basal (was just one unit) for a few weeks, but my morning/overnight levels have started to rise (ever so slightly) consistently over the past week or so, so I'm thinking of bringing it (one unit) back in. However, is this okay to do whilst novorapid is still doing it's thing post evening meal? I am guessing yes given that they do different things, and 9 times out of 10, the basal will be added as the novorapid is coming to the end of it's cycle. Plus, I guess we have them together in the morning! My basal is Levemir.
Also, my DSN initially advised me when I started using novorapid (pre-Libre) to wait 4 hours after eating and then test before bed to check the novorapid had brought the levels back down. Is this something we need to do as diabetics (time our meals around our day/routine, basically) or would it be okay to eat/sleep when I like (within reason!) ?
