Group 7-day waking average?

Hmm, I seem to be stuck. 4.8 again.
 
A not so clever 10.0 this morning, I think stress (a friend of mine died aged 35 :() is the cause. :(

So sorry to hear about your friend Phil.

Thanks Gill,
Go careful with the jelly babies and correction.....at 3.8 you were probably still rising, I find that they can take 20-25 mins sometimes before they stop rising, in other words 5 mins after having the other 3 JBs you were in range....only to go high after your second correction.......hope that makes sense! :D
 
Yesterday high weather was just vile 38 at work 32 outside so started day on 7.7 ended on 12.6

Today 7.8
 
4.8 for me, thought I might go hypo last night as BS was lower than expected late evening, but all was ok, this heat is so frustrating trying to balance tablets / food and heat all together.

Can't reduce the tablets, otherwise will be high all day, then trying to compensate for the changeable weather is a nightmare.

What tabs are you on pav for your diabetes?

I take 2 x 500 mg metformin twice a day (still a winy place after 13 years :D) and 160 mg gliclazide in the morning.
 
Guess what my waking BG was this morning.
 
How about 4.7?

I should be so lucky. No, it was up a little after three days at 4.8, I scored a 5.1. Just as well, I was getting bored.
