Group 7-day waking average?

Forgot to post this earlier when I got up 04:06 BS 5.6. 🙂 Happy with that. Now after breakfast 05:48 BS 7.9. Happy with that too! 🙂 BS has come back down to about normal now after being a bit higher due to boo boo the other night! 🙄 Doesn’t sting anymore & no signs of infection: just keep applying cream & wait for the peeling to happen, like sunburn, once the skin heals & renews itself. Then, it’ll be fighting the itch time! 😱

An early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
Good morning, a 6.0 today.

My pump woke me up at 4 am alarming non stop with a pump error , not a good wake up alarm :( After speaking to Medtronic USA who deal with UK overnight issues it needs replacing- hopefully today. Just setting up old pump that I was thankfully able to keep when the warranty expired. Going sensor less/clueless for the day 😱 Oh the challenges of diabetes.

Lovely photo @Northerner , is that your new kitchen? 😉🙂

No, this is from my old house - she's actually still lazing in bed. Gives me time to get to the corner shop for some flowers and a box of Black Magic 😉
 
Morning Folks reporting a reading of 8.1 this morning but it’s slowly coming down on my 10 units twice daily.
 
Morning all. 6.4 for me today.
 
Morning my lovelies 🙂

6.0 for me this morning, probably done wrong as I've reduced my breakfast bolus half a unit as dropped too low 4 hours after yesterdays breakfast bolus and I'm going out in an hour but hey ho

Hope you all have a lovely day! :D
xx
 
5.4 on this wet & miserable morn. 😱
 
Good morning to all my fellow bloodletters. Still higher than I’d like 7.2 but lower than the last two mornings. Bright and sunny at the moment but that’ll change this afternoon as I’m at the funeral of an elderly relative. I don’t go to many funerals ( thank goodness) but it always rains when I do. Have a terrific Tuesday everyone. 🙂

Good Morning, 8.7 for me this morning. I am glad I am in single figures due to change in medication but I still don't really understand why higher than last nights 7 after dinner and didn't eat anything after..... Slowly getting there

It's probably due to your liver - we have a need for glucose to provide energy 24/7 in order to power all our body's systems like heart, brain and digestive system, even when we are not eating, so the liver stores and then trickles out glucose throughout the day and night. It does this in a cycle (the 'body clock' or Circadian Rhythm), sometimes less, sometimes more. As we wake in the mornings - and even before - the amount of glucose will increase in order to give your body a boost of energy to start the day, so it's quite possible to be higher without eating 🙂
