How Do You Surpass The Overnight Lows In Order To Get A Full Night's Sleep?

Is It Bad/dangerous To Be Upping Pre-meal Short Acting Insulin Doses?
Got diagnosed last month with immunotherapy-induced T1D, as a result of immunotherapy treatment (Keytruda) for recurrence of synchronous uterine and ovarian cancers (tried to avoid repeat of 6-month-long chemotherapy).
