My Morning Blood Sugar

Why is it that I wake up with a great sugar reading in the morning, then my sugar shoots up a few hours later and does not come back down?  I like to think that I have good control over my JD, but obviously I don't.  I will wake up at 8am, test my sugar (100), then I will eat, do the correct amount of insulin for my food, then an hour to two hours later, my sugar will be 240.  >:-/ What happened to the insulin that I gave myself for the food?  Who knows.  This problem frustartes my everyday.  I took this problem up with my doctor (the one who has an attitue) and she acted as if she did not believe me or I was not telling her something.  I told her what she needed to know and she did not help me much-I mean she tried, but her advice did not work.  I tried raising my insulin formular for what I eat in the morning, but that caused my sugar to drop too low.  I also tried raising my automatic 'basal' rate in the early hours, but that did not work.  Ugh!  The problems!

  1. You should get a new doctor, if you can. Or at the very least, get a few more medical opinions. Some doctors like to think they know everything, but they don't, so your best bet is to try and research the problem yourself.
