Good Morning Everyone 🙂
Just wondered if anyone might have any thoughts on the below I'm a bit baffled Im catching up with my DSN in a few weeks so was going to bring it up then as well
I currently take 22 units of Toujeo in the morning was previously 32 units but had to reduce it quite drastically recently to stabilise bloods abit due to meds i was on. I'm off these the meds now and starting to gradually increase the basal again once every 7 days under consultant advice.
One thing I have noticed is regardless of being on 32/22 units a day that my levels start to fall quite abit after a little while first thing in the morning I dont often eat breakfast as I don't get hungry. In the past I put this down too much basal based on a basal test. However I get quite abit of overnight rise which is why the Toujeo was at 32 previously. This makes me think it's not related to the basal as I see the same behaviour while being on a lot less. I know overnight can be down to food as well but i have noticed my highs being higher than before probably down to not enough basal
Ive attached this morning's graph to show what I mean
Hope the above makes sense
