Group 7-day waking average?

Morning guys 🙂 7.4 for me (didn't correct an 8.9 at bed last night as was scared I'd go too low) not raining here yet but don't think it's far away :( x
 
7.4 for me too @Kaylz BG never got high enough to risk to take full final dose if bolus. Better a tad high than the hypoland express.
 
Morning all. Making guess at BG as run out of strips and didn't have time on Friday to go to post office to collect. Maybe as well as I am off visiting to rainy Dumbarton and my friends are good hosts who like to feed you well.will get back on track when home. Have a lovely day all
 
Good morning. 6.1 for me around 8ish. 🙂 I went to bed on 6.0 but was in the 5s all day. I'm happy with that.
 
Good morning everyone. 10.1 today. My fault because with the Gastroparesis I know that I'm pushing my luck if I eat both lunch and dinner....also probably not helped by the delicious Churros with hazelnut chocolate sauce at the hipster place :D :D
OMG Aj...spooky...just got sent a photo of my goddaughter Aliya...eating...Churros...with...Hazelnut sauce!!!...as said spooky...or what (and I didn't even know what Churros were either).

Morning all! Forgot to test & already had 2 cups of coffee so won't bother now. @Ditto sorry to hear about your disastrous course. Can't believe the lecturer didn't turn up!

I took a 1 unit correction with my tea last night after all the advice on my hypo thread so didn't think it was worth risking taking the 1 unit at bed time to correct looks like it was probably the best idea too x
 
A third day in a row clickety click, 6.6 but steady is good. Barely changing overnight 🙂

Have a good Saturday everyone.
Yes steady is good Amigo, you're obviously doing something right :D x
 
Morning all, a respectable 5.7 today - I've been trying to drink more water to lower waking levels as advised on another thread, and it seems to be slowly working.
Good, glad to hear that drinking more water is having a positive effect on your bgls Pine Marten. 5.7 is a good number :D keep it up (down!)

Afternoon all. 🙂

5.9 @ 3.11am and 5.9 @ 9.29am then 5.4 @ 12.03 after a huge brunch. Yum.

Good, how did you get on at the Diabetes Course today Ditto? x
It was rubbish. Tiny room, they sent letters to all so why didn't they allow for the numbers? We were sardines. They had us in and out while they took tables out trying to jam us all in, then the lecturer didn't turn up. 😱 We're not going again, lost our faith. Apparently she's often late. Bet she's on a good salary too. Pathetic. It took a lot of planning to get there yesterday not to mention the expense of transport. We were disgusted. Still never mind, we had a good day, went round the charity shops with my sisters. 🙂
@Ditto. I do feel really really sorry for you Ditto. You had planned & waited so long and had built-up your hopes & expectations only for them to be dashed because? .............the lecturer didn't turn up😱..for whatever reason. Very bad organising on their part. Disappointment & maybe anger on your part i suspect, an understatement to say the least.

When I was first dx type2 I was fortunate to have been offered a place on an X-PERT Diabetes Education Programme, four hours per week, for six weeks, the venue was a local hospital. It was worth attending coz it was both constructive & enlightening. We learned much about our individual type diabetes, digestion, blood glucose control, insulin resistance, dietary approaches to weight loss, setting goals,sources of carbohydrate, carb swapping + much more. It was my DN who referred me. (And it was as a result of that course, that I joined the forum).

I'm wondering if you also could be referred to the same, that is of course if a) You're interested and b) There is a Course available in Manchester under its Community NHS Foundation Trust? I'd like to think that you would greatly benefit from such a Course. If you are interested then perhaps your Diabetes Specialist Nurse (DSN) or GP would refer you on to an X-PERT Course. I hope you'll find links below interesting. Good luck Ditto x

I think it was that course! 😱 GP referred us. Dunno if I have a DSN as I've never seen one. 🙂
 
Good afternoon/evening peeps!
I awoke to a 7.00

Sorry got carried away catching up on here & forgot to clock on! :(

We didn't have a Lecturer. We had a Dietician.......and there was a limited number of diabetics who could attend the Programme ...I think there were 14 of us in total, a relatively small group. It's a pity your GP's surgery doesn't have a DSN ..... but hey ho, there's enough of us here who are willing and able to give as much info out to each other as we possibly can! x
 
.......I had to stab my finger with a lancet this morning without the Microlet device! 😱 and it took several attempts to do it too OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!😡 don't know where the flippin device is! Was in the case last night when I did my last test in bed! Suppose I'll find it in a bed sock on the floor at the bottom of the bed under the overhanging duvet! Haha!! 🙂

Oh Bubbsie that is soooooo spooky. I rarely eat sweet food but churros with hazelnut sauce are just soooooooo delicious xx
