Should I lower my BI again?

Hi
I've been having 16 unit of lantus at night for the past few years (I used to have 18 until I lost 2 stone). I've recently started noticing I'm dropping my BG a lot over night so 2 or 3 weeks ago I lowered my lantus to 14. I still seem to be dropping a lot and am getting up to test and having to go to be with a fairly high reading to get through the night.
I think I should drop now to 12 but that seems so low, thoughts anyone?
Thanks
Michelle

Just from looking at the numbers there I would agree that you need to drop your BI dose............there isnt really a too low or too high dose, its just whatever your body needs...................just trust the readings you have in front of you.................

I know of a few folk that are on less than 8 units for the whole day, in fact, sometimes they need to throw out insulin, as it reaches its expiry before they get the chance to use it........... :

What I would suggest is that you do some 3 am test just to get a full picture of whats going on. The 3 am test is most useful when you are waking high and want to see if an overnight hypo is responsible. This is not the case for you, but wise to record anyway...........

So, my advice would be to drop to 12, and do some 3am tests to see what the 12 is doing.........

Keep us posted..........
