BS level level is always high before breakfast.

I fail to understand why my BS level is high even though I take very less food but it is before ten pm. It's better not to check the BS level often. Our life should be stress free. Then everything will be okay.

High BS in the morning is not uncommon among diabetics. It is known as Dawn Phenomenon leading to secretion of hormones e.g. adrenaline, cortisol to prepare us for the day. These hormones promote release of glucose into the blood by liver. This process is normal whether diabetic or non-diabetic. Any rise is blood sugar is well taken care of by proper insulin response among non-diabetics. However, type 2 diabetics have impaired insulin response ( mostly insulin resistant or in some cases not able to create enough insulin) and can not regulate the blood sugar. Having early breakfast helps in some cases to lower the blood sugar. PPBS is lower than fasting in such cases.

You should not be too much stressed about this unless BS is too high. Stress is another trigger for releasing hormones responsible for raising blood sugar.

Do you exercise before breakfast and take the reading immediately after exercise?

Please check your carb intake .. carb is major reason for BS rise .. also try to check with your doctor if you can go LCHF diet

Not checking BS often is not going to control your BS anyway.

Many doctors are not aware of LCHF. and they still follow the age advice on Diet.

Hi, check cb content of the food that you take post lunch. Brisk walking in the evening will reduce your blood sugar levels at 10 pm. Is the check done 2hours after dinner? If you are taking some medication then check your diet intake accordingly.
