Group 7-day waking average?

4.1 this morning and struggling to keep my numbers up. :(

Murphy?

Still in the fours, but at least managing to avoid an actual hypo so far. Being LADA/1.5 means my pancreas occasionally works right for a brief period, so it could be that I suppose. I'll have to cut down the insulin for today and see where I am tomorrow.

Makes sense Alison...I guess it is even more hard work for you as you are sorter stuck in the middle.
 
1st time for me to get in first with the daily reading 😱 this morning its a 4.1, might get a second morning wake up reading if I can get back to bed.
 
Morning all, second waking time this morning is 5.4, think I over corrected the not quite hypo earlier reading as was 7.4 after 1 1/2 hours.

Snap Pav! My son was 5.4 this morning which is spot on target (and therefore not often achieved!). 🙂

Hope you're feeling ok?
 
4.6 this morning. Must admit that's the most pleasing result for awhile as most have been creeping down to the 3's again.

Good morning 🙂 5.5 for me today, which I am pleased with. I went out for a meal last night and was feeling all smug with myself at getting (or so I thought!) my insulin dose spot on. I was 4.5 before eating. When the food arrived I guessed at a dose of 12 units: 2 hours after eating I was 8.0 and 4.5 hours after down to 5.7 🙂 However...an hour later I checked because feeling a bit odd, and I was 2.6! 😱 Had some JBs and half an hour later had risen to 3.7 so had another then went to bed. So, very happy to wake on a 5.5! 🙂

Feeling very tired at the moment waiting for a doctor at the moment :(, and very frustrated now 5 nights on the trot had to call them. 😱

Good that your son was spot on target. 🙂
 
So since I started my pump, my waking bloods are a little higher than on MDI but will be basal testing next weekend.

Wednesday I was 6.9 but had to correct due to an occlusion at 3.15
Thursday 8.5
Friday 7.7
Saturday 7.7
This morning 6.8 but corrected a high at 5am
 
11.7 for me this morning. :( My stomach played up last night so was in pain and had to spend the night on the sofa sitting up and taking painkillers so I know the reason for it.
 
Managed to reach a staggering 6.8 before bed after a horrible hypo day. 5.5 this morning and keeping a close eye on things.

The good thing is that you managed to have a hypo free night. 🙂 🙂

That basal test will only be good for the weekend.
Workdays need a different basal. 🙂
