@Albert1, I see very well control. I know if with a more slow unit you could adjust more, but you could be at risk of hypo.

Those climbs when awakening are normal, sometimes it is the sensor itself, if you go down to good values ​​you are very good.

The best data will be given by glucosilada, better about 6 than 7.

It seems that you don't get fast.And the insulin you use will be a 24 -hour flat.Starting from here.

Go up the slow one, one in one.Or start exercising every day, if possible.

You need more basal insulin (the one that uses the body without eating), I do not think you have hypoglycemia, unless you lose a lot of weight.

That is surely that when you are lying you are pressing the freestyle and when you get up, and then stabilize, it is normal
