Group 7-day waking average?

5.1 for me after a false hypo yesterday before bed. I was 4.1 so never been that low so guessing my body didn't like it. Did not sleep well as I kept worrying about it.

I hope MikeyB is ok and just no internet.

Morning all, 6.4 here. Medical appointments all coming along at once, yesterday was eyes, today is boob squishing. At least I only have to trot five minutes along the road to my GP surgery for both.

Boob squishing on Friday for me, oh joy!

Gliclazide isn’t doing anything yet, on 80mg and woke to 9.1 - daytime results have all been the same, waking on an 8-9 then steadily rising during the day, and falling back overnight. Still up all night with The Thirst and weeing. I WANT MY SLEEPS.

Just got back from mine, I love the way they describe the pressure as 'a bit firmer' for the side view. Mediaeval torture level of 'firmness' I think. The procedure was definitely invented by a man!

It’s hateful, so painful :(
 
Good morning folks.🙂

Don’t worry about me, I’m okay, just deteriorating a bit. I’ve been busy sorting stuff out, and didn’t have time to indulge in thinking, so just had a break from the forum. Right leg is joining in the fun, so I’m not far from having to use a wheelchair indoors. I’ve got an appointment with the neurologist in a fortnight, but I don’t expect any magic treatment, just a diagnosis and maybe prognosis.:confused:

Anyway, woke on 8.2 this morning. Think my basal needs upping, went to bed on a steady 6.1 and just drifted upwards overnight. Oh well, never mind🙄

I’ll be fairly intermittent for a couple of weeks, but as I said , don’t worry if I’m missing for a few days, it won’t mean I’m ill. Don’t do ill🙂

Have a good day, everyone while you can. It’s going to get cold next week, which could make the cricket interesting. Hand warmers in pockets, I suspect.😉

Good to see you’re still around, I was having visions of you stuck permanently in your lift....
 
Phew. Good to see you Mike.

Ah, good to hear from you Mike, thanks for checking in 🙂 I know we may come across as a bunch of old fusspots, but you mean a lot to us 🙂 I'm sorry to hear that things have taken a dip :( Take care, and check in when you can, I've recalled the Diabetes Fairy's search and rescue mission 😉
 
12:05 BS 13.1!!!😱 No idea why? But, had my usual half oatcake & upped my half dose slightly from 4 to 6 units Novorapid, midday Levemir & meds. I wonder if it’s the inhalers?🙄

I’m taking them when I wake & before I sleep now. And I DO need them as I’m a bit wheezy when the air is a bit colder at night. Also, get quite winded when out on wee walks! o_O

Another super bright, sunshiny day!🙂 Hope you all have a wonderful day!😉

Great to hear from you & you’re ok, @mikeyB 🙂

Also, nice to hear from you too @Kaylz , even if you’re a bit under the weather!🙂
 
Hi folks, really late today, hospital appointment this morning for my manky black toe. So a 6.8 this morning, could be higher the next two as have the little darlings here for three days consecutively as it’s school holidays up here. They are eating us out of house and home and it’s only day 1! @Robin glad you survived the boob squishing, a flat chested friend once admonished me for complaining about having a “ fuller” bust as it couldn’t possibly hurt as much come boob squishing time as it does for a A cup wearer! She’s probably right, at least I have something to squish, she finds it excruciating. The things we have to put up! Enjoy the rest of your day. 🙂

Can you hear the collective sigh of relief?

Good to hear from you. Sorry you’re not having the best time of it though. Just have a little smile to yourself at how well respected you are and how so many people were worried about you!
 
06:33 BS 8.1. Better than yesterday!🙂 But, I haven’t taken my inhalers yet & will do so now!🙄 Yesterday was another warm sunny day but, the air is noticeably cooler at night & I get wheezy at times!

An early good morning folks & I wish you all a great day!😉
 
Morning all and 4.2 for me.

Strange times. Since coming back from Germany I no longer have to pre bolus for breakfast or delay bolus in the evening.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning all, started a new Libre sensor yesterday, so I can see what’s going on overnight. So, 5.8 when I first woke up at 5am, 7.3 at 7.30 when the alarm went off, 6.3 ten minutes later. Take your pick!

Last time mine was fine, but a bit breath stealing, but boobs smaller.. she said that doesn’t make a difference though
 
Morning all on this beautiful frosty, sunny morning. A 6.5 this morning. Busy day ahead, haircut this morning and sort the kids beds out this afternoon for the onslaught later on. All four arriving about 4 o’clock, feed them about 6, bed at half past! In my dreams! “ it’s the holidays we are allowed to stay up until 10” they say. Hmmm...9 at the latest, got the BBCs latest drama to watch. Wish me luck. Have a good day. 🙂
