Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 5.9 for me today 🙂 New sensor applied yesterday - always a nervous moment to see if it would be accurate, as my previous one had been pretty good. First scan was 8.5, with a Libre blood test of 8.7 and a Contour Next blood test of 8.6, so pretty happy with that! 🙂
 
Hello on this very frosty morning. A 6.6 for me today. That’ll do nicely. Off up a fell today, haven’t decided which one, but it won’t be one of the big boys, I do know that! Mr Eggy was twittering under his breathe about Helvellyn but that won’t be happening! It’ll be a nice little one like Walla Crag, still challenging but without the need for the Mountain Rescue to be on hand! Have a great day whatever mountains you have to climb in your lives. 🙂
 
Thank you everyone who congratulated me on yesterday’s 5.2.
@KARNAK Ted I hope you had a better night last night.
I peaked at 13.6 last night but didn’t correct and woke up this morning with a 5.8 🙂
13.6 Just highlights the erratic patterns with gastroparesis considering that two nights ago I was having a hypo at 3am and I always carefully carb count.
 
Morning all. 8.5 for me which is a low reading for me so far. Hoping to hear about a DN appointment soon.
 
What does HS mean please?
 
HS stands for House Special, which is a reading of 5.2. It has evolved as a running joke on this thread, 5.2 being round about the centre of what we are aiming for!

Lol thank you. I was googling it with diabetes as a search and couldn’t get anything lol duh!
 
All this clock changing lark has upset my smart home devices again this year.
One of the consequences was that this morning my half of the leccy blanket had been on for longer than expected (just to take the chill off usually).
When I awoke, unlike Mrs Thatcher, I was nicely done on one side and definitely ready for turning.😳😛

Reading this morning 6.7.
I wonder if body temperature affects BG levels. Thinks, I feel a few more experiments coming on. (Might even try sleeping by the freezer.)o_O🙄

Have a great Monday, everyone.

Disappointing 9.0 for me this morning.
I have an appointment with the consultant tomorrow. Hoping to get an Echo pen so that I have the flexibility of half units and maybe discuss Libre.
 
G'day all. 7.5 @ 5.45am
