Group 7-day waking average?

The sensor is currently towards the inside of the left arm. I do occasionally turn on to my left side while asleep, but as that is a difficult manoeuvre in my present state, that’s unlikely. But I’m still thinking it’s a Libre glitch, simply because I didn’t wake up and it self corrected. The reason I mentioned it was to see if anyone else had seen such a thing.

I sometimes get a dip and a rise back to where it was before, ( a symmetrical 'v' shape) and like Northie, I assumed it was because I was squashing the sensor in some way, because I have never woken up for them, whereas I still do if I'm genuinely hypo.

I do dip into the red sometimes overnight, but suspect that might be because my sensors tend to read a bit lower than true. Of course, I don't use basal, so don't have the concerns there that most people do.
 
On quite a few occasions I've scanned during the night and had the Libre say that I'm in the 2's but when I've checked with a finger prick I've been in the 4's and 5's and no subsequent hypo.
However I thought I have good hypo awareness but some nights I've scanned with the Libre, the Libre says that I'm hypo, I've had no hypo symptoms, but the finger prick has confirmed the hypo.

Thank you Barbara. I managed to get rid of the ketones at 1pm and BG is now in the 7's. I feel rough but at least my levels are sorted 🙂
 
7.8 @ 6.25 for me this morning.
 
Good Night and Good Morning All
Question??? If I prick my finger to much will I go to sleep for 100 years like Sleeping Beauty and have to be woken up with a Kiss?
This morning at 5.40 am my little machine showed a 4.5.
It's wonderful to be alive so enjoy every second you can.
Take care everyone.

It’s that time of year again - the Vegadeo Poultry Festival! The bars were full of champion poultry-showers from all over Europe last night. Can’t wait to see this year’s (monster) pigeons, turkeys, chickens, etc.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
 
What a night! Shocked at 2am that my BG was 16 (on Libre and meter) so had correction recommended by my pump. Woke up at 5.30am with a 2.1 !!! 60g carb got me to7.1. I feel wrecked and my gastroparesis didn't like needing that much carb.
