Group 7-day waking average?

Woke to 4.7 with a pretty good flatfish.
Have just fired up a new sensor, I hope it’s a gud un .

I bought 3 sensors yesterday and have already received the email saying they’ve been dispatched 🙂
 
9.3 for me today. Going to move my lazy butt and walk to shops to buy a new doorbell as wee theiving destructive gits stole the bell from my front door. That’s the problem of living in a street that is a through way from Main Street to everywhere. Here,s hoping they had fun with it..maybe put out the other part for them
 
Good morning peeps 🙂

Interesting night for me. Went to bed on 5.6. Dead straight line till waking on 5.9, which is essentially the same score. Struggled out of bed, put on dressing gown, and wheelchaired down in the lift to pick up the Guardian. Got back, and my over solicitous liver had bunged me up to 8.2. At least it still works.🙂

Went down into the village yesterday afternoon for some supplies. Like a ghost town. I think all the proper workers have gone back to work, so I was reduced to annoying Range Rover Evoques driven by women. You can identify the women because they always give me a 10ft wide berth. Tell you what, it was flipping cold.:confused:

Anyway, have a good day everyone, I’m off for a birthday tea at a local restaurant tomorrow. I expect I’ll be paying🙄
 
5.7 and really enjoying being a more ‘normal’ diabetic. Is there such a thing? By the way, what is the flatfish you all talk about?
Enjoy your birthday tea @mikeyB and hope your back improves @khskel.
 
09:00 BS 7.3.

A flatfish is a flat straight line line trace of blood sugars on a continuous glucose monitor, like libre flash, & means your BS was steady with little or no variation!
 
I forgot to post this earlier 09:00 BS 7.3. Feeling a bit better today but, still woke with an inkling of a headache!:(

Yesterday’s massive headache meant I stayed in bed & I fell asleep again until 6pm, after midday Levemir of 26, upped a little in case I’m brewing something again! Headache when awake & ate a lot, hungry, 12 units Novorapid, sleeping & awake again, before BS 10.5 after BS 9.7. Then went back to bed around 1am after 8 units Levemir, upped a bit! Slept a lot yesterday!🙄

Had 14 units Novorapid for breakfast & just now, 10:43, after BS 9.3. Staying in bed today with a hot water bottle under the quilt!🙂

A good morning to everyone & I’m summoning up a bit more enthusiasm to wish you all some sunshine on the inside!🙂

It’s as @Lanny explained. It all started when I didn’t notice my iPad had put flatfish instead of flatline .

Thanks for enlightening me, I thought it was diabetic medical terminology. Well, I guess it is really :D

Thanks, glad I don’t have libre, I don’t want to know what my continuous readings would be...definitely not flatfish for sure!
 
Hi all, a 9.3 for me today. Blood tests tomorrow ready for my annual review, should be interesting to see the results (might not find out until I get back from Poland though).
 
Morning all. A 9.5 for me today. Off to have blood taken this morning ready to see what's happening with my HbA1c and everything else they check.
