What were you at before bed Marie, and did you test as soon as you got up? I would suggest doing a 3am test to see if you are dropping low in the night and rebounding. If you are not testing as soon as you wake it could be that your liver is releasing lots of glucose as the morning gets underway. I discovered that this would happen to me - I tested when I got up, then an hour later when I decided to have breakfast I tested again and my levels had shot up! So now I test and inject as soon as I get up and usually have my breakfast around half an hour later.
Looks like your basal is set well Gareth - they say that if your basal insulin is correct then you shouldn't fluctuate more than 1.7 mmol/l overnight, and your rise was....1.7 mmol/l! 🙂
