Group 7-day waking average?

Morning...6.5 for me today...
 
Morning all 7 on the dot. Basal tests next week. Some strange BG rises and falls here.
 
Good morning everyone. 8.4 after a 3.30am correction. I just can't get my night time levels right.
 
Morning. And a 6.4 to finish off the week.
 
Morning all, 9.7 for me today.

I seem to attract comments usually by having one or both legs in casts which I've sort of got used to. I've got my hand in a big bandage at present and the man at the foot clinic must have decided I looked sufficiently away with the fairies to be sitting in the wrong clinic o_O I try to look grumpy to put people off commenting but it isn't working!
 
Morning all! 6.3 today. Not bad considering my carby tea last night of Youngs Gastro fish, peas & new potatoes plus a chioux bun for pud, which took me up to 6.8.🙂

I wish I could eat like you and get those results Mark. :(
 
It's odd, because when I'm really trying & go for something low carb, my figures go higher than when I'm not trying. The fish, which was breaded, wasn't bad at 14.9g per portion.
 
A late rise for me - 4.8
 
Thank you @Northerner

Not due back to the Diabetic clinic until April.
Lantus steady at 30.

Will leave it for now, but no more major changes, just one unit at a time.

How are you keeping?
 
8.1 here. Not surprised, had the dentist first thing, and although everything's fine, and I expected everything to be fine, and my dentist is lovely, the thought of it still stressed me out!

Same here Stitch ...I only have to talk about eating chips or thinking about a Rice pudding and my levels go up. If I actually eat chips or rice I can add at least 5 to my BGs (If I eat Takeaway Chicken Fried Rice I can get up to 17!!

Splitting my Humulin-I 20/20 has ironed out the evening spikes BUT ...isn't bringing my levels down low enough (no, I've not been eating Chinese food) ...still hovering around the 10's consistently throughout the day. I might risk the wrath of the DSN and increase my split to 24/24 (I don't see her until Jan/Feb anyway)

Must be frustrating as hell for you Jonsi. I'm not up on these meds but sounds like you need the cavalry bringing in! 😉

They are going to be so surprised and amazed at your progress! 🙂

I'm fine thanks @Hazel 🙂 Blood pressure has been up this week for some reason, which is a bit alarming as it's the only factor I can really improve on to stop the problem with my eyes getting any worse. Not terrible though, but might consider raising my BP meds if it persists, I'm currently on a very low dose 🙂
