Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 4.0 today - just on the right side of the tracks!

First the medicine - I'm off to the foot clinic again today what will I find out? 😱 Then the sweet - I found £400 in a drawer I tidied out yesterday 🙂 It was my disaster fund, I remember moving it when my boiler packed up and had to empty kitchen cupboard. Made me smile 🙂

Have a good start to the week all 🙂

I once found £200 in an envelope in a drawer too. Two years before I was saving up for a holiday & wondered where it was! I DID go but, didn’t have as much spending money as I’d have liked! I went shopping & bought nice shoes & a handbag when I found it! You can be too clever sometimes & outdo yourself!😱:D
 
Good morning everyone🙂

I’ve had a long lie in. Didn’t get up till 10.30, with a score of 4.1, which is just about OK. I appeared to be hypo overnight, but I think I’d been sleeping on the sensor. I’m changing it this morning anyway. A fingerprick test showed an even 5.0, which when you consider variability is much the same.

Oh well, new sensor, new day. All's well with the world🙂

Turn The Screw 6.2...ugh....that's what I do all day anyway.
 
A bit late today but a mighty 5.3, an hour later 3.2 :(. JB`s 100ml of pure orange juice 5.8. Cooked a whole chicken ate 3/4 of it no meat just the bone :D up to 7.0 its been a warm day in Paignton today 25.C, probably getting to the end of summer. The amount of ambulances that are whizzing along the main roads we call the sirens the Paignton National Anthem 😳.
 
Trend continues for the moment ... 5.0 this morning.

A little bit of score-keeping gratification, but not sure really how desirable. I see sod-all evidence of clinical benefits from BG levels below some point higher than this & some risks from being too aggressive. Oh well, see how it progresses.

PS: Seems like DP has disappeared, for now.

Good morning. 4.9 after two cans of mini Coke during the night. I can't get my BG levels up at the moment - hospital appointment on Monday and they won't be happy with my levels being so low. Oh well all those years I was worried about going to the clinic with levels too high and I've only had two hypos this week, the rest I've caught whilst being in the 4's. Thank goodness for the Libre 🙂
 
Morning all, 5.7 here, BG seems to be toeing the line again. I always have a major blip or two when I'm in the three month run up to an HbA1c. Mine's due end of this month.
 
Good morning 🙂 It's another 4.0 for me, have given meter a shake to mix the numbers up. 🙂

No hospital appointments today after a run of them errm, what does a person do when they're not sitting in a waiting room listening out for their name to be called ....:confused:
 
08:41 BS 9.8 & no headache! Yay!🙂 It’s a rather nice bright morning too , with the sun shining through hazy cloud!😎 Can take my time this morning!🙂 Will have my 18 units Novorapid, execises, breakfast & hot bath in that order!🙂:D A very Good, Good morning everybody!🙂😎:D

Editited toadd:- Oops! BS is ACTUALLY 9.6! A mere 2 points but, it’s makes me happier!😛:D

6.7 for me this morning, and after drinking loads of water yesterday my mood is slightly lifted and a better day eating wise yesterday, still a bit to go to get back to where I was, but a definite step in the right direction.
 
Hi all. Not posting numbers as too depressing.gone up and up since stopping one lot of meds. Have been doing the denial bit or the what the heck, or maybe hungries and carb cravings. Phoned nurse to see what is happening and waiting for reply. Trying hard today, but resting as well, and going for a wee walk soon

Have a good day all

Sorry you're having a bad time, @Carolg, I hope the nurse phones back with something useful.
 
It’s not that bad thanks Robin, but I don’t do well with the waiting and not moving forward now I have accepted that I have to move on. I know everything has to be put in place first, so heigh ho, I will have to be patient
