See MD: Proper management of your blood sugar, particularly as you describe, is beyond the scope of this forum. You need to consult your doctor who also knows your history for appropriate advice.

Reactive hyperglycem: The Lantus (insulin glargine) may have lowered your blood sugar and the liver stepped in to produce glucose called the somayaghi effect. May need to reduce the Lantus (insulin glargine) dose. Consult your diabetic specialist.

Family practice : Blood sugars can fluctuate with a lot of factors. Check with your dr what you should do. Do you have regular Insulin to give when blood sugar is too high.
