What have you been told about fasting #’s

I was diagnosed with GD about a week ago. Been tracking food and blood sugar since. All my post-meal numbers are great but fasting is consistently slightly elevated.

I got a call today saying I’m going to need to start insulin. What have you folks been told about your fasting numbers??

Were any other treatment options suggested? Change to evening snack? A pill? Waking up to eat??

I’ll do the insulin if needed I just want to be sure all options have been explored first.
