Group 7-day waking average?

@MeeTooTeeTwo and @Newbie777 congrats on the HS
@eggyg hoping all goes well, glad you got a good night
@Snowwy snap I also got a 6.3, glad Mrs Snowwy had a lovely birthday.
Beautiful day again today in sunny old Brighton. Took MIL to hospital yesterday and no quips directly aimed at me - phew!!
My daughter (33) had her vaccine yesterday and SIL booked in today. The Brighton Centre sent out a message saying they had appointments available so she got on the site and booked which is great though I suspect the uptake is decreasing as the age comes down.
Enjoy your day everyone xx
Thank you @SueEK
 
Disappointing 8.0 for me this morning. Worked hard shifting manure onto some communal raised beds at the old people's bungalows yesterday, so I left my basal at 2 units last night and had a 10g biscuit to bring me up from a low 5 at bedtime. At least I was below 10 all night and no hypos though so stayed in the green and I am down to only 1% low for the past 7 days according to Libre, so that is about the best I have managed for hypos since I started using it. Top end is a bit heavy at 17% though. No idea why I am going high so much.

Many congratulations to @MeeTooTeeTwo and @Newbie777 on your House Specials today.

@eggyg Hope all goes well today. Will be keeping my fingers crossed again until you update us. Amazed your BG isn't through the roof with the stress of it!

@ColinUK Nice to see you are being rewarded for your efforts with some consistent 5s.

@merrymunky Onwards and downwards. You will be posting 6s before you know it!
 
Morning

@MeeTooTeeTwo and @Newbie777 congratulations on the house specials!
@Lanny lotus aren't the carbiest of biscuits at under 6g per biscuit
@Michael12421 oh no, not again, hope you treated it with sugary carbs and are now back in range

Anyways after another 5 digestives last night it's another 6.5 for me again today, think I may need to get on to reducing basal as ratios are all out of whack at the moment too 🙄

Mum says her arm is easing slightly today but she was really bad with it yesterday, in her words "but it's only a small price to pay"

Thank you @Kaylz, I think you reading is good too!

Hope your mother continues to get better.
 
Morning. A high 11.4 for me, struggled to get the levels down yesterday but managed by bed. Graph still shows they shot up overnight but whether this is they way it is (and has been for a few days) or whether it was the vaccine yesterday, who knows any more.
Congrats to @MeeTooTeeTwo and @Newbie777 on your HS.
@eggyg fingers crossed for your daughter. Hope everything goes well.
@Bexlee it sounds like you have everything organised well.

I’m pretty constantly in the mid 4’s during the day too at the moment.
And fighting the urge to go out and buy a damn fine french loaf and a wheel of Brie de Meux.

My levels were bonkers for three days after my vaccine.
Hope they settle for you
 
A 6.8 this morning, with gentle fells on my sensor graph. The sensor is reading a bit lower than BG so the autocorrections panicked and turned off basal briefly. Still fine.

Thinking of you today @eggyg .
Congrats @Newbie777 and @MeeTooTeeTwo in HS
@merrymunky take it step by step.

Another sunny day, but a cold start. Good excuse for slower start.
 
Good morning. 5.3 today. Mr Mac2020's birthday weekend. I'm dreading it. In-laws. It's complicated.
Well done @Newbie777 and @MeeTooTeeTwo for your HSs.
@eggyg wow lots of excitement going on. I'm sure you will be announcing excellent news in no time. I was a 3 week premie. Still here over 5 decades later!
 
4.8 after long sleep have added a few carbs to feed extra exercise as getting low readings after heavy treadmill runs.

I’m hoping it’s ok and organised. I’m sure it will all be fine !
 
Morning All

A 6.5 today - and a very sore arm. Feels like I’ve been proper pinched in it. Not other effects after the jab though so that’s good.
Have a great day all. Lovely and spring like here. May go for my exercise walk later.

I had a sore arm for 5 days, not 1 day as I was incorrectly told, but it does better
 
Good morning

Good morning,

Hope things get better for you and you don't continue to struggle.
