Hi,
I have been a type one diabetic for 7 years and my sugar control has always been excellent, with an HBA1c of around 42. Recently my sugar levels have been constantly low. With the dawn phenom they max out at 8 to 9 and throughout the day they are dropping to just above 3. At night they are regularly between 3 and 4. I have recently dropped my lantus night time jab from 40 units to 36 as i thought this was the reason for low readings. In addition i have dropped the units for my fast acting insulin, but again the sugar levels are so low. i have tried eating snacks and this makes minimal difference. What is going on?
