Hi sorry to hear you are having problems with the sugar levels. The insulin you are taking at the moment seems to the culprit , especially the one you are taking at night time. This particular insulin has a peak at in the middle of the night when you are not having anything to eat . And also it takes some time to get going resulting in high sugars rest of the time during the day. I feel you need to change the type of insulin you are taking so that you can something which acts quickly and gets off you system that quick as well , and does not hang around, thereby reducing the chances of you having low sugar in the middle of the night and also good control after the meals which is of paramount importance.
