Basal dose

Hello everyone,
I have a specific query in relation to the basal insulin dose.
I am DBT1, I give myself in a daily way of Tresiba and I carry my treatment for hydrates.
In general, my postpandracial DPS measurements of the dinners remain in values ​​of 120 and remain thus until the following mornings before breakfast (100/110).
What I have noticed is that the days I eat many more hydrates (pasta, rice, sushi, etc.) of the usual ones, my postpondrial dinner is in 120 but I arrived with breakfast with values ​​of 140/150.
It may be that the days that one ingests more HC of the usual ones, consumes more units of the basal (slow) and that is why at night it does not stay stable until the next day?
Thank you

If you only use slowly, you can't lower the glucose of all hydrates and go up throughout the night..Using only slow you have to ration the hydrates.

If you have more slow hydrates you will need more basal to metabolize.That's why you get up high.
I would avoid those hydrates at dinner, comelos in food that you can exercise in the afternoon you can burn them.
