    is the description of the dawn phenomenon correct? I have a resource that says hyper glucermia due to gh and cortisol.

    I’m guessing you mean hyperglycemia?…

    Regardless, as much as I can… I “guarantee” they will not ask you about the pathophysiology of the Dawn Phenomenon in patients with diabetes. The would test you on the treatment of the Dawn Phenomenon

    -> Treat by giving the nighttime insulin dose LATER than usual.
