Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning. Where has the sun gone .
Went to bed on 4.7 with 3 gingernuts tucked safely away inside of me, they did the trick as I stayed in the safe zone and woke to 6.7.
Their is no sign of my insulin ratios going back down yet, speaking of insulin it’s time for me to go and stick needles in myself.

Hope you all have a good day, I will catch up with posts later.

It’s like another world, so relaxing x
 
Guten Morgan, well that’s my schoolgirl German exhausted, need to swot up before our Grand Tour next month. A 6.5 today for me but that could rise with the stress of “ the big shop” I will be undertaking very soon! A dull start to the day but we’re heading over the border to the south west Scottish coast for a walk later on and the weather is supposed to brighten up, fingers crossed. Have a great day whilst I go and fill Tesco’s coffers with my precious pennies. 🙂

Good morning. 2.4 on waking. Have to get some carbs down me as I have to drive to the hospital at 10.30 as the surgeon who performed my cancer op in June wants to see me. A bit worrying but perhaps it is just a follow up.

Get those levels up Michael 🙂 I hope that it is just a straightforward review at your appointment, good luck 🙂
 
Good morning all🙂

Had a stonking hypo before bed last night, but corrected that and woke on 7.2, after a nice straight line overnight. The joys of T1 and a Libre. Learned how to gobble enough even as the brain cells go into hibernation. (With the assistance of test strips). But with test strips you never see the spikes.

Right, that’s the Libre advertising finished. My computer went into hospital yesterday for emergency treatment. Suspected hardware fault. Which bit of hardware is misbehaving I don’t know, but I suspect it’s a RAM failure or disconnect. Sheep farmers get that problem as well, I’m told.

On top of that, Openreach’s engineer Siraj is calling today to fettle my enfeebled fibre broadband, but I think that’s a simpler problem of a new router needed. Maybe.🙄

Modern problems, outside my skill set or education.:confused:

Have a good day, everyone. It’s raining, thank goodness, but should stop tomorrow for my retinal screening. It’s always sunny for that:D
 
I was 4.8 last night when I ate my Caesar salad which I normally allow 20 carbs for. As I was 4.8 decided not to inject until later in the night. Unfortunately later in the night I realised that my testing kit was downstairs and me and my boot couldn’t get down. I was very tired and thought that there was no chance of a hypo because I hadn’t jabbed for dinner. When Mark woke me at 9am it was a lovely 5.0 🙂
 
The meeting was just a follow-up. She told me that the biopsies revealed that the cancerous cells had been successfully removed. I have to perform various manipulative manoeuvres on the (rather large) scar. If anyone asks I'll just tell them that it was the result of a duelling scar I received whilst attending Heidelberg military school in 1858!

That made me laugh. I have a two very large scars on my abdomen from two major operations. The largest is curved and I tell my grandchildren I was bitten by a great white shark whilst driving in the Great Barrier Reef! As they get older I don’t think they believe me anymore! Probably because they can now Google and they know that the great white doesn’t inhabit that region! :D

I've got a big scar down my leg where they put the scaffolding when I broke it running the marathon. I go for the shark tale as well - I guess you and I are from the 'Jaws' generation! 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 6.5 for me today. Back on the blood tests until after my shower, after dislodging the sensor yesterday when taking off my tshirt :( It still had 3 days to run, but it was mainly my fault so I don't think I'll try and claim (adhesive wasn't particularly sticky when I took it off, filament was bent at a right angle from where I'd tried to press it back on 🙄)
 
Good morning from a very overcast part if East Kent.

I am loving the shark tales.

5.3 scan. I’m finding that these sensors are less accurate from around 10 days, is any one else experiencing the same ?
My insulin needs have not come down yet after my virus or whatever it was, So I am using the insulin calculator to work out my bolus. No doubt the change if/when it comes will be sudden 🙄 :D.

Hope you all have a good day.

Oh that’s so annoying when that happens.
 
Morning all, a 7.7 for me and a nice flat line during the night.
