Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning from a grey and drizzly east Kent, what achange from yesterday’s brilliant warm sunshine.
Was most happy to wake on 6.0, however I feel hungover due to last nights mild but difficult to shift trip into the red zone , I really can’t believe it took a big swig of juice, 300 ml of Coke followed up by two slices of wholemeal toast (hypo hunger got me ) to get me from 3.8 to 5.5 so I could go to bed safely.
If I ever catch hold of that DF god help her.

Hope you all have a nice day, I’m off to make myself a restorative coffee
 
Morning all, 4.9 here. Libre showing a red line most of the night, must have been lying on it, can’t really have been hypo after fish and chips last night!

It really makes you wonder sometimes when you have to consume so much carb to bring levels up that you'd normally need a generous slug of insulin to counter! 😱 Hope you have a nicely settled (if wet and windy) day 🙂 It's similarly miserable here! 😱
 
Good morning peeps🙂

Just woken up in double figures, 10.1. I do miss the Libre, I don’t feel quite in control. Still, it could be DP, cos I did wake up at 8.30 and tried to get up, but abandoned the idea for a dose of magic oil.:confused:

Still, a bit of correction, a long black coffee and that should be sorted, no worries. Sensors should arrive tomorrow anyway. Human again🙂
 
Good morning 3.8 on a rainy day back up to 5.8 now 🙂.

Off to Torbay Hospital again 🙄 this afternoon for an X ray (Pelvis), main reception think I work there :D. I can`t say that's the end of it as I`ve another 3 appointments in November, I`m not complaining the NHS is looking after me and I am very grateful.

Enjoy the rest of the day folks.
 
I am very late today, been to get my wig bashed this morning. I look like a different woman, Mr Eggy is pleased! Currently on hold to British Gas, been passed from pillar to post trying to renew our Home Care agreement. Third phone number now, touch wood they can sort me, they usually love taking money out of my bank account! Back to the matter in hand, 6.9 this wet and windy Wednesday, happy with that. Feeling a lot better today, I’ve beaten that dreaded lurgy! 🙂

Oh I feel for you and Mr Eggyg, took me 3 months when I moved. Keep all receipts and if possible record phone calls or better still do it by email, they can`t deny that. Good Luck.

Morning everyone. A high ( for me) 8.4, looks like that infection is still lurking about, I feel particularly rubbish today. Going to have a steamy bath with some bergamot and lavender essential oils to try clear my stuffed up head. Then afterwards I am going to be mostly doing nowt! New fridge coming this morning so a little bit of excitement to look forward to. # needtogetoutmore 😛

Hope you feel better today eggyg
 
Morning folks.🙂 A bewildering 9.3 here.🙄

Best get out with the dogs quick, before it starts chucking it down!😱:D
 
Good morning all you snotty and ex snotty folks (that’s me)🙂

Well, I had a grotty night. For some reason my left hip decided to stick it’s oar in, so every time I rolled over in bed I got a nice shot of pain. I got it subdued with two Trammies and three drops of magic oil.

Then, a challenge. Had another waking at 6.30, so checked. BG. 5.0. Now this is a click and bleed reading. So am I going up or coming down? I ate a jelly baby.

So, to the point. Got out of bed on a score of 4.4. Good game:D

Still, at least according to the Lords of Misrule ParcelForce my sensors arrive today, then I can get back to basal fettling, for even more fun on the Diabetes Front line.🙂

By the way, got a text from daughter. Grandson Tom, 3 and 3/4, can now swim half a width with no flotation aids. Well, I was impressed.😛
 
Morning all, a 9.2 for me today. Off up to London today to meet an ex work friend for lunch and a catch up.
 
Well gang, my sensors have arrived. Back to normal.:D

I’ve sent an email to Abbott. I’ve got an appointment for EMG tests on 13 Dec and I need to know if I can leave my sensor on for the zapping of my miserable muscles.
 
Oops! Nearly forgot, 6.4 this beautiful morning. I was so excited about emptying one fridge and transferring it all into my brand spanking new intergrated one...NOT! Promised old one to daughter number 1 so had to give it a good scrub. Don’t want to spoil her illusions that I am a paragon of cleanliness virtue! Kitchen coming along nicely, tunnel a bit shorter and I glimpsed a bit of light last night. Have a good day all. 🙂
