Morning! Level today 9.1 before getting out of bed. Last few weeks has been between 7-9 sometimes going up to 10 before breakfast. Spoke to DSN and have increased basal Lantus by 2 units - am on a low dose of 8units. I take the Lantus 7.30 every morning as was advised could take it any time if day provided same time every day. My average glucose according to libre is 7.4. Wondering if should take Lantus at a different time of day. Am LADA but doubt that will make a difference. Wondering what I’m doing wrong - any advice.
 
Is it going up in early hours of the morning it so it's likely dawn phenomenon
 
Hi thanks for replying. Recently been 8-10 at bedtime then dips a bit through the night then starts to rise again in the early hours.
