Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all on this grey, wet and dark morning:(
A 4.8 for me. Looks like a further basal reduction may be in order, as been on a flat line at this level all night.
 
Morning peeps can't say good as found out last night a lad I know had a bad crash yesterday afternoon and unfortunately lost his life :( absolutely devastated for his family as thats the 3rd son they have lost :( 5.4 for me today and hope everyone has a good day x

OMG K...what dreadful news...to say tragic is an understatement...his poor family.
 
Thanks guys he was only 28 and has a 1 year old daughter, poor little thing will have no memories :( x
 
After a high reading of 9.5 yesterday I woke up to a 4.7🙂 this morning. This is my lowest morning reading since I started testing 41 days ago.
 
Budge up, @Hazel, I'll join you on the 5.3 step today 🙂

Terrible news, @Kaylz, very sad for the family.

Okay, so I'm now feeling very inadequate! I'm starting to get my pre and post meal levels into some sort of reasonable order, though not great at 6 - 7 before meals and 7.5 - 8.5 two hours after meals but my waking BG remains stubbornly too high, varying between 7 and 8.5. I haven't tried the protein at bedtime suggestion so perhaps I'll give that a whirl. I see the Practice Nurse (we don't have a diabetes specialist here in the frozen wastes of the north) in a couple of weeks for my first post diagnosis check up but fear I will get a sound telling off if I raise the subject with her as I was specifically told not to test my BG.
 
Good afternoon everybody hope you're all keeping well 🙂 it was 5.1 for me this morning 🙂

It doesn't matter if she complains, it's clearly working very well for you - those numbers are really good! 🙂 Morning levels can be a bit elevated, due to increased insulin resistance in the mornings, plus the liver 'boost' of glucose to give you energy for the day, but which you rather not have thank you very much Ms. Liver! 🙄 Are you doing your morning tests immediately on waking or after you've been up and about for (even) a few minutes? My levels can increase by 2 mmol/l from the point at which my head is raised from the pillow and my feet hit the floor! 😱 🙄 The reason why it's good to know is that your overnight levels may have been perfectly fine, and therefore far less of a worry or impact 🙂
