That's a very steady overnight reading Gill, much better than those night hypos you were having a couple of weeks ago 🙂 And I'd just like to say well done for getting back into regular testing after letting it slip a few weeks ago - good job! 🙂
 
Morning all, 6.2 for me. Being stuck to the white trombone is throwing my BS all over the place in the teens one minute very close to hypo the next.

That's another considerable drop Gill. Well done on going for the low-carb option for a bedtime snack, it helps to show how much your levels are dropping overnight. Can I ask when you injected for your evening meal, and did you take a test then before injecting?

Thanks Gill, on that evidence I would say that your lantus is probably still a bit on the high side as your mealtime insulin should have largely tailed off by bedtime. I'd see how it goes for a couple of days, but you might want to do some 3 am tests to make sure you're not dropping low in the night, given you had an 11 mmol/l drop last night.
 
5.1 this morning and a 7 day average of 5.3.

Mind you I'm 1 hour a day cycling now and don't have time to eat 'cos if I am not on the bike, I'm crashed out in bed 🙂
