Ok so for once in the past 2 years lol I wanted to get to bed early, like 1AM.
I wake up after 8 hours of sleep… then I look at my pump’s sensor readings… 1AM - 129, 3AM - 183, 4AM -267, 6:19AM - 302, 8AM 322, 11AM - 254, 12AM - 187. then its back down to the norm.
what did you eat for dinner? Does this happen nightly? You said this is a once in a while bed time so possibly your basal are set for more activity? Possibly a liver glucose dump from LBS before bed? Over compensation for LBS? The reasons are endless.
Some more info about sleeping trends, what you ate for dinner / snack, usual activity what your BG was before the spike, etc would be helpful to offer better advice. =^)
Hi, this is question actually has nothing to do with the discussion but does the minimed give your sugar leveles too? Are the sensor readers yoru sugar levels?
I have the same issue sometimes. I read an article on D-Life website about swinging numbers while you sleep. Mine goes up and down usually waking up with a morning high. Apparently it is very common. It doesnt give a clear explaination on the cause just that some people experience it and its really nothing to do about it. I didnt research it any further but I would Google it or ask your endo in your next visit.
The MM is a pump, with CGM (the CGM reads your sugar levels), then there is a meter you can use with it (one touch ultralink) that sends the meter results to the pump as well. So the meter, CGMS, and insulin all run through the pump.
