Yesterday in my panic of high bgls for a couple of days I increased my tresiba by 4.0 units from 16.0 units to 20.0 units.
This morning it's a new day - I've done 17.0 units which is an increase of just 1.0 unit. I will leave it at 17.0 units for the next 4 or 5 days and see what happens.

I'm glad you have done that, much better in my opinion to make small changes and see how you go.

So pleased you readjusted your Tresiba back down to 17units, considering you had a teatime hypo the day after the big increase and were low again at bedtime. Otherwise it looks like it is levelling out quite nicely and you are managing it well.
