Group 7-day waking average?

Morning

6.2 for me today

Have a nice day folks
xx
 
Good morning folks . 9.7 on the finger I my Libre line is 😱 added a 1.5 correction with my brekkie jab.
At least I know why my BG is misbehaving, a relation of the DF the uti fairy has paid me a visit :( had to start antibiotics.
Hope e you all have a good day.
 
Morning all, frustrating 4.2 after going to bed on 6.4

Diabetes enigma at play again, this after turning tap down on pump previously, only thing can thing of is better absorption on current infusion site which was changed late afternoon, place not used in a while which might explain things, gonna have to test early hours tonight, joys of diabetes sigh.
 
What ho! 5.1 this morning with morning reading drifting between five and six for a few days now. Although dull and grey we have missed most of the heavy rain of recent days. That changed in the early hours!
 
Beautiful sunny Autumn morning - hope it lasts. 🙂
And a sunny 5.1 as well. :D
 
Good morning gang🙂

3.6 for me - McVities brekkie today🙂

Had one of those delayed meal things yesterday. Ate an off-piste meal of pasta with a chicken and mushroom creamy sauce. Went hypo an hour after eating that, due to the larger than normal bolus. BG didn’t spike at all.

So, Sleep (1).. Fell asleep in the chair, still running along with a BG of 6 ish.

Sleep (2) Woke up (4 hours after eating) on 16.2. Re-bolussed.🙄

Wake (2)at wee O’clock 5.4, steady line

Wake (3) 3.6, as I’ve said.

Fortunately, I haven’t got true persistent gastroparesis, it just happens occasionally when my neuro symptoms are bad, and yesterday was a seriously bad walking day.

Good game, I say🙂 Think on bad days I’ll have to bolus after eating. Simple.🙄

Anyway, back in reality, I’ve finished the Bill Bryson book. The last chapter was about death, which was interesting. If you want live a long life, get the right parents. And don’t live in America. As the quote at the start of the last chapter says “Eat healthy, exercise plenty, die anyway”. 🙄

And on that thought, have a good day, and remember, when the rain is going sideways, don’t use an umbrella, just don't go out🙂
 
Good morning 7.6 bolused for brekkie eggs on toast, down to 5.3 now.🙂 Wet outside temp. 18.5.C, had two begging letters from broadband provider not to change providers, still can`t receive incoming calls on the land line and have to reset the router several times a day.🙄

Good game, I say🙂 Think on bad days I’ll have to bolus after eating. Simple.🙄

I do this quite often @mikeyB, works for me.🙂

What was in that Gelato @eggyg a roast dinner?o_O

Take care folks weekends nearly here, more rain on the way.:(We can still smile though.🙂
 
You just can’t win sometimes can you. fifteen minutes after my brekkie bolus which included a 1,5 correction for a 9.7 I sat down to eat my 2 slices of wholemeal toast with peanut butter, I scanned only to see 4.2 with a straight down arrow , I re confirmed that really don’t like full fat Coke before the sun is over the yard arm.
 
Almost tomorrow, it was a 5.2 but I didn't have any internet connection. I'm now the proud owner of fibre broadband, the forum pops up at the speed of lightning! 🙂
Good evening Flower, glad to see you joining us at this hour :D congrats on the house special! xx
 
Woke to a 4.4 this morning. The insulin is definitely working at bringing my morning levels right down.

Diabetic pregnancy consultant told me to drop my lunchtime metformin too to see how we go on. So just back to the two twice a day again.
 
Pleased with 6.4 today. I knew I was a bit low yesterday morning so had a little extra to cover a busy morning but with lunch getting slightly delayed I went hypo. When everything was sorted mid-afternoon I decided to treat myself to a pint. Usually Guinness works well but I thought I would try the guest ale. Goodness knows what was in it but home to 15.3! Corrected and had late small supper. Will stick to Guinness till next time! :(
 
Good morning everyone. 8.1 for me. Been exhausted for the last few days and had a ride in an ambulance on Wednesday - not diabetes connected but still not sure what caused the problem!! Not connected to that my broken foot has improvement but not healed yet so I'm in the boot for at least another 3 weeks, that will be three months in total at my appointment on Halloween! On better news I thought that my HBA1C would be bad after the last few weeks - it had gone up but I I'm happy with it being 6.6 (49) 🙂
