Group 7-day waking average?

I think the Metformin is starting to kick in now... 5.9 this morning... although typically I've managed to leave my tablets at home today. Lesson learnt to keep a few doses at work for emergencies and hopefully two missed doses (Breakfast and Lunch) won't have a negative effect overall

I always keep extra in my draw at work just in case I do forget them.
 
Good afternoon everyone. Waking Bg for me this morning was 4.8 and although it went up after I had too much Lucozade it is now back at 4.8. That's with my insulin back to normal and a day spent not doing very much at all.

There's a big difference between a nurse, even a Diabetes Specialist Nurse, and a Consultant Ayesha. Do you see the nurse at a hospital clinic or at your GP surgery? I'm concerned that you are not getting the help you need to achieve good, stable blood sugar levels. I think you need to seek a second opinion, your current treatment pattern seems far too haphazard :( You can ask your GP to refer you to another consultant.

ohh i didnt know that, i see someone at the diabetic clinic which i got referred to by my GP. to be honest iv been trying to get some headway by the nurse/consultant but when i go to see her im practically rushed out of there after 5mins its just a quick checkup on my weeks reading and i get the same thing all the time "just increase your lantus between 6-8 units" depending on your day readings. So iv never actually had a consistant steady BG levels mines could be anywhere between 3.7 to 15 :\
 
Good morning all 🙂 7.4 for me this morning. I won't bore you with the full details but I think I can see a pattern to my BG levels. Tends to fall during the morning and afternoon and rises in the evening and early hours. Peaked at 8.7 @ 5 am from 6.2 before a carb free tea . Let's see what they can suggest at the clinic next week. Not disastrous figures by any means but I would like to know if there is a logical reason behind it. My suspicion is the creon.

I hope you can get a proper treatment plan sorted out.

This sounds like the opposite of what happens to me! No creon involved in my case, of course.

Good morning 🙂 6.1 for me today after a 7.7 before bed. Feeling a bit headachy, but better than yesterday 🙂
 
5.8 this morning, and I'm wearing three layers and still cold 😱
 
6.0 on the nose. 🙂
 
Good morning everyone and 6.9 this morning after an overnight. Took ages to defrost car to come home but looking forward to bed now 🙂
 
Mine was 8.3. I'm relatively happy with it. But it was 12.8 at 3am and I had to correct... If I hadn't woken up I assume it would be much higher this morning.
 
Morning all.🙂 6.6 (clickety click, Amigo, haven't heard that for ages!) for me.😛

Thanks for your Picos-best wishes, Flower and AJ - I've just read them now. We had a lovely time...a beautiful sunny day Saturday wedged in between wet n wild Friday and Sunday. And OH bought me a fab jacket for my birthday - I'm a very lucky woman!

😛:D🙂

Belated Happy birthday @Bloden ! :D
 
Thanks, Northie...It's not belated, it's today!🙂 And I've got my favourite classes at work...Puzzles, games and sweeties all round.😛
 
5.1 for me this morning 🙂
Started a new diet/exercise regime yesterday so I'm just off to the gym before work... Doesn't feel like such a good idea when bed is so warm!
Have a good day all x
 
Good morning folks - 7.5 for me today :D
