Group 7-day waking average?

[Bloden]

Good morning 🙂 5.7 for me today 🙂 Quite overcast this morning.

That’ll be smoke, not cloud... I hope they manage to put the wildfire out today. Our local Spanish town was still dark at 10am last year because of the fires. Spooky.

Morning all.🙂 7.9 here - overdid the bedtime snack, methinks.🙄

Good morning 4.9 this morning

 

[Amigo]

Not tested yet but expected to wake up
with newly developed pains after what felt like a badly judged rugby tackle last night over a newly introduced chair in the bedroom! (I didn’t put it there). Went absolutely flying and narrowly missed knocking myself out! I still have a fully torn rotator cuff from the last fall onto concrete!

I’m too old for carpet burns on my knees! 😱

OUCH!!!!!
I wonder who got yelled at.
I actually thought about you the oter day while at the RVI. I nticed the name of the very expensive shops in the hospital here are called AMIGO and I suddenly had the thought about your goodself and your fourm name.

Sunny now, wind must have changed 🙂 Feel very sorry for those living close to the fire, terrible situation I recall similar back in 1976.

 

[Lanny]

Oh, good grief @Amigo!

Hope things settle for you soon!

I used to have a nightdress that was too long for me but, put up with it! Until I tripped over the hem, fell onto a glass table, banged my head face down & knocked out serveral teeth! OUCH, OUCH, OOOUCH!

Funnily enough Vince, expensive shops remind my husband of me too!

A 6.9 for me

Sounds painful.

5.9 for me today, but wondering how I managed that when I had a small slice of pork pie yesterday.

Sounds like a one-off or maybe an infection brewing @Kaylz, don't worry you don't need to do anything for that 🙂

I wish it was just a one off been going up during the night a lot recently but I wouldn't class it as enough to shove in an extra unit of Tresiba, you know what I mean, feel like c**p with how I'm doing at the moment and feel like I'm letting myself down as my daily averages have been in the 7's xx

Maybe have a word with your DSN Kaylz. Could be an underlying infection (UTI?) as Northerner says or even stress related as you’re not eating any differently. Still within decent parameters though so don’t panic.

Hey @Kaylz, it's a difficult tightrope to walk and as you know things can shift and change from time to time. There are a lot of factors involved in what happens to your blood sugars from day to day, and although your levels are a bit higher currently they are far from being bad. I do know how you feel though, you just can't help being frustrated when it's difficult to pinpoint any reason and your levels start running higher - I have been getting 6s and 7s over the past couple of months, and have only recently got a couple of waking upper 5s, when I used to get low 5s regularly. The upside of having average levels in the 7s for a period is that it will improve your hypo awareness. I'd give it a bit longer before changing the Tresiba dose - are you due to see your DSN at all, or can you contact them for advice?

I know what your saying is right and losing my hypo awareness was a real worry when I was permanently waking so low and obviously dipping under without waking and I know I'm not dangerously high or anything but still makes me feel like I'm not doing so well and slightly embarrassed if I'm honest that's a reason I haven't been posting here much 😳, no I haven't heard anything from them in months and even when I did email I didn't get a response I can phone if need be but it's usually a case of leave a message and we'll respond within 3-4 hours and with other appointments it sometimes doesn't allow as they don't always appreciate you having your phone on, I'll see how it goes over the weekend and if need be give the department a call on Wednesday (first day I'm available to sit and wait on a call back) xx
