You'll get there Stitch...once you get the right support.
 
Morning everyone. A rather hungover 5.9 this morning. Got a little bit tipsy last night & had a custard slice. It was very nice.🙂 When I've recovered a bit, I'll get on with decorating the kitchen.
 
I'm definitely seeing a likely reduction in basal there @Hazel 🙂 What are you down to now?

34 units of Lantus - lowest for years - I have tried a couple of times to bring down to 28, but it hasn't worked out. Consultant wanted it brought down to 45-50, so early 30s is OK with me

You're doing amazingly well @Hazel! 🙂 I'm just alittle concerned that 4.3 is a bit on the low side for a waking number, as there's a possibility that you might have been even lower during the night, when the liver naturally dips in the amount of glucose it releases. Perhaps a couple of units off? You will be becoming more sensitive to the doses as they get lower, as they are more efficient than larger doses 🙂
