Hello,
There was no point in not giving the injection insulin last night.
Considering her high levels of sugar,she has to be controlled on injectable insulin only and for this her dose and her diet has to be properly controlled and measured.
You have to be in regular touch with your doctor for monitoring and adjusting the insulin dose.
Thanks
