Group 7-day waking average?

Morning everyone. Confusing 7.4 this morning despite having less than 60g carbs yesterday!!
Lovely sunny start to the day, have a good one all x
 
Late today, couldn’t quite get myself out of bed this morning. Another 6.6, exactly what I went to bed on. Busy day, got a surprise hen party for our daughter on Saturday at ours. So cooking, cleaning and crafting all going on. I won’t be doing the crafting I’m absolutely rubbish at that, Mr Eggy has been assigned that task. Have a good day all. 🙂

Could be a Panicky liver
 
Silly me! 😳
I thought I'd posted this earlier - but must have forgotten to press the enter key - cos it was still sitting here all greyed out. 😛
Anyway, what I was going to post was - another grey morning and 5.7.
It's still grey and overcast now.🙄

Oh well, as the lesser known Hood said
"No sun - no moon!
No morn - no noon -
No dawn - no dusk - " etc etc

Have a good day everybody

Snap! I did the same thing today! 😱 🙄 6.1 for me today, another relentlessly dreary, wet, cold day. Why do people say they like autumn? Yes, the trees look lovely, but only briefly, then it's just grey gloom until March :( It's like someone throws a switch for me at the beginning of November and I suddenly feel lethargic and my mood takes a huge dip :(
 
Good morning all, very wet here, s'lovely. I love Autumn, but I love all the seasons, I just wish they were proper seasons now like back in ye good olde days. 🙂

7.3 @ 6.28am
 
6 exactly this morning, side effects have subsided a bit, but having a tight chest again, still on the antibiotics so not going to panic until I have finished them, have a follow up appointment with asthma nurse next week, so will be reviewed then.
 
Good morning 5.5 on a nice bright morning,🙂 been on Statins for the last month won`t be on them for another day.😡 I haven`t eaten anything for three days just relying on Liver to dump glucose into the system, must be working along with basal,🙂 I`ve reported the side affects to the yellow card website.

Congratulations @karloc on your weight loss.🙂

Take care folks have a good day.🙂
 
3.7 this morning, which I only got up to 5.0 after eating. I think I will have to drag myself out of bed in the middle of the night, at silly o'clock, to test as suggested. It is odd that I feel as worried about the reading being too low, as when it is too high! Maybe I am a little OCD. 🙄

Edit: I love Autumn, because everything is at a beautiful stage, nature wise, a sign of natures renewal and the nights are getting properly dark! :D
 
Good morning up here on a 10.3 spent most of yesterday in the 13’s even with corrections. 🙄

Appointment was very difficult, no new bone growth in 3 years, fractures just as they were, surgeon told me to let him know when I could cope with amputation. Got a new plaster cast and a scrambled head. Off to look after my Mum for a week so a train ride will do me good. Thank you for all the kind messages, you all help me so much x

I hope things went as well as they possibly could for you @SueEK 🙂

Have the best day you can 🙂
Aw my dear dear @Flower I'm truly sorry to read your devastating news, my heart goes out to you. You've taken some nasty knocks over the years and have always put on a brave face yet I feel deep down your heart is breaking tho you don't outwardly show it. How you maintain your sense of humour I really dont know. You're very courageous.

Enjoy your stay with your mum ~ as well as looking after her, treat it as a diversion of your current state of health. Take care and stay safe.
Much love & ((((Warm gentle hugs))))

@Greymouser may I ask why you have to drag yourself out of bed to test in the middle of the night? Do you not keep your testing kit by your bed? Only asking!!!:D

Morning all 🙂 and today it's a ................... 4.5 :D
 
Morning all, up early today as I had a full 6 hours sleep which is unheard of for me. A Len Goodman on the meter , SEVEN! I would like to tell you what it is on the Libre but I’ve lost my sensor! Yes, lost, as in I haven’t a clue where it has disappeared to! Mr Eggy noticed it was loose yesterday. I scanned at 6.22pm before my evening meal which we ate about 6.45. My daughter messaged at 6.56 asking me something and I left the dinner table and went up stairs to the “girls” bedroom to get the answer. Came downstairs sat and chatted at the table. Tidied up and went into living room at 7.20 and caught the last of the One Show. Masterchef started at 8 and it reminded me of food so I went to scan and nothing, strange I thought, tried again, “ no sensor found”. Felt around the back of my right arm, nothing there! I have backtracked my steps, the house isn’t that big, nothing, been into rooms I know I definitely didn’t go in between those times. I’m flummoxed! :( Four days to go, I can’t report it as I don’t have one to send back, as yet. I’ll keep on looking as I really don’t want anyone to stand or sit on it. I’ve even checked in my kitchen cupboards and drawers. Washing basket, under sofas, etc. It could be the poltergeist I suppose. 🙂

A phlebotomist found one of mine stuck on the back of my dress once , she’d never seen one before let alone one stuck precisely there lol.

I hope it turns up soon.
