I am prediabetic and my A1c is 5.7 and has been up to 6.0
Recently I have been measuring my morning glucose and it varies between 80 and 125. I have only measured in once at 2. AM, when glucose was 90 versus 105 at 7 AM.
Reading about this it seems to match the The Dawn Phenomenon.
Has anyone dealt with this?

I have, but I'm on an insulin pump. So, I have my pump set to give extra insulin in the morning. Another that has helped is to eat less carbs in general, but especially at night.0
