Group 7-day waking average?

Thank you,Going to look at Metformin at my review on 2nd of July.
Fantastic work getting off insulin Spireite…try to have a good read up on metformin before your review if you can...whilst it doesn't lower our BG's per se it certainly does help...it has other benefits too...I did stop mine but over a period of around a year...slowly one by one...have a discussion on the merits of Metformin at your review...and how you would like to reduce it if you feel you're at the right stage to do so...I feel it always good to be involved in decisions surrounding our treatment as far as we can be.
 
Good morning. 8.0 for me this morning, but probably due to porridge with some honey last night. Feel better today, still cough but no razor blade in throat this morning.and slept from 10 till 7
Have a good day all

Thank goodness for that Carol...hope you're not going to work today...so important to wait until you feel really on the mend...a good bowl of hearty soup...feet up...even with the 9 hours last night...plenty of rest still needed....relieved to hear you are feeling a little better.🙂
 
Oh bubbsie, are you telepathic. I am sitting with coffee in bed, contemplating work and thinking I could go in if I keep myself isolated from others.i think it’s a virus that has been lurking in other areas, hits hard and goes quickly. I have been lucky methinks. Did the right thing coming home yesterday definitely.
 
Good morning everyone. Its a beautiful morning here, hardly a cloud in the sky. I’ve got fasting blood tests tomorrow at 9.00, the usual panoply of this and that checking up on my various deficiencies and diseases, which will probably include anaemia after the nurse has finished. I’ll get there on the wheelchair, but I should get my road going scooter soon if Motability get their act together.

In the meantime, I woke up with a BG of 5.6. That’ll do. It’s a sensor change day today. Only one left after that, so more shopping....🙂
 
Don’t have much time this morning! 03:50 BS 7.4. Only because it’s so early, I suspect! Off at 04:50 for early flight to Manchester to see my sister before she passes! Will be a long day as, I’ll be flying back later this evening! Don’t really want to eat yet but, having some steam veg rice & tea with usual 6 units Novorapid! Better eat it quick! Good morning all!

Hope your travelling goes easily Lanny, your BGs leave you alone and allow you concentrate on spending time with your sister. Thinking of you.
 
Morning folks 🙂
Don't have a clue what I've done but since Monday night I've had a niggling short sharp burst of pain in my left leg when I stand up, was in my ankle all the way up to my knee, now just seems to be the back of my knee 🙄
Another beautiful looking day here but seems I may be stuck in this week with folk placing orders and others making deals 🙄
Anyways its a 5.7 for me today
Hope you all have a lovely day!! :D xx

Carol do yourself & your colleagues a favour stay at home...we do often get back to work before we're ready...to our detriment...have another day of rest & recuperation...you need it.
 
8.7 for me today. Fairly bright start here, sun is trying to shine.

Sounds like you've pulled something Kaylz...try to rest that leg...have you any ibuprofen...might be good if it is swollen or inflamed...it started off grey & cold here but the sun is out now...so the day is looking better already.🙂

Wee shopping trip?
I have yet to meet any lady who has a "wee shopping trip". :D
The definition of "wee" is relative 😛
 
Well what can I say... will have my bag of coin with me to in case those English shopkeepers won’t take my Scottish notes.
