without having eaten anything? I have 2 different blood sugar monitors, so I know it's not a defective monitor. Any suggestions?

This is called the Dawn effect. Just before daybreak our body releases hormones called corticosteroids that 'preps' our body in preparation for the day's work. One of its effect is to release glucose into our blood stream....causing it to raise sometimes even higher than during the rest of the day.
By the way...your blood glucose profile is good....are you diabetic? You have the blood glucose profile of a non-diabetic.
Anyway...just to side track....if a diabetic is taking too much insulin injection in the day time, you will find that the glucose level will also shoot up especially in the middle of the night (about 3-4am in the morning). This is called the symogyi effect.
Hope that helps!

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

If this is the Level your Doctor set for you, It sounds good. If your in question compared to every one else's levels, disregard the later. If your having problems and fear full of going into Insulin shock. Contact your Doctor for an adjustment to your Diabetic Regiment. Always Consult your Doctor if any changes are made of your Diabetic Regiment or Procedure.
From what you've described, I would say your Pancreas is Producing more Insulin then suspected when first Diagnosed with Diabetes. A visit with your Doctor and proper Diabetic records that you keep of your situation would confirm this.

first of all, both these blood sugar readings are within the normal range. blood sugar fluctuates constantly and from my research any monitor has about a 15% variable in either direction. my doc recommends the one touch ultra and doesn't want me to use any other meter.
one reason it might give you a higher reading in the morning is from inactivity during sleep. with those readings, i wouldn't be concerned. you're very lucky.

I've heard the body makes it's own sugar out of different stuff in the body. I don't know how it works.

Alot of stuff that we eat is not processed until later like when you are sleeping. That could account for a higher morning reading.
Good luck.

You need more NPH insulin to help you last through the night. I think your doctor needs to adjust your dosage. You may not be eating at night but changes do happen so talk to your doctor.

Because your liver released sugar during the night.

good question. my moms diabetic and her bs levels are always highest in the morning even though she takes insulin before bed.
but it probably has to deal with processing dinner and leftover stuff from meals that day while your sleeping
