ok in contradiction to my last thread my son is now having a lot of lows
i have recently lowered his levimer from 12 to 10 units as he was waking low
went to bed last night at 7.4 middle of night was 10 then back to 7 when he woke but through the day he's having a lot of hypos gonna try lowering all his
pre meal insulin i was expecting more highs from lowering his levimer:confused:
 
Maybe means that the levermir lowering was the right thing to do overall, but that the ratios need looking at? Are you carb counting? What times are the hypos happening?

Any unusual exercise in the day? My son suddenly took up handball at lunchtime, and it took us a while to figure this out!
