Group 7-day waking average?

6.1 for me this morning after a very restless night, there was a controlled explosion at midnight to demolish more of a power station on the other side of the Thames, but it shook all the houses on our estate, waking many of the residents up (at least looking at the amount of responses on the Facebook group most seemed to have been woken up), after this I really struggled to get back to sleep and then got stressed about getting off to sleep, which of course just makes it worse. Oh well it is Friday and I get a lie in tomorrow morning.
 
Morning 🙂

lurgy doesn't seem to have left me completely and I've got a stuffed up nose again :( only after having a snuggle on the sofa with Bruce last night again though!

6.3 for me this morning

Very surprised that the books I ordered off ebay on Wednesday night arrived yesterday afternoon! 7:43pm they were ordered, 7:49pm I got an update saying they were being posted and arrived about 4pm yesterday! still waiting on Bubbles toy that I ordered before that though! lol

Have a nice day peeps 🙂
xx
 
Good luck.at hospital, sorry I missed what’s happened to your foot
Thanks Carol, its ongoing problems I've had for several years now. I saw a physiotherapist at my GP surgery and he referred me for a scan to assess damage to tendons before coming up with a plan.
 
Good morning 3.3😳 been absent from thread for a couple of days. Figures are still dropping very quickly, reduced the Basal down to 14 units a.m. and 6 p.m., bearing in mind I was on 52 units a.m. and 34 p.m. when I was DX.🙄

Happy holiday @Rob51.🙂

Congratulations on HS @emmgeo and good luck with fishing.🙂

Good luck with the Ultrasound Stitch.🙂

Have a good day folks, take care.🙂
 
Morning all, tad blustery and grey here. Have a good day all.

I totally give up with bloods, I can't get any out. 😡

is your lancet on the deepest setting? are you using the fleshy part of the side of your finger? are you washing your hands with warm/hot water close to pricking? put your hand in your oxter or between your legs to warm them up? prick and then hold your hand down towards the floor to encourage the blood to flow to the top of your finger? there are various ways to get a sample xx
 
Yes that is a tad early but imo still a HS .
CONGRATULATIONS on your early HS
 
Good morning. Hope you all have a good day. We had a bit more summer here yesterday, not as warm though. 6.9 scan Still higher than I like, but with a good attempt at a flat line ,so I am not too unhappy.

Yesterday was the first day I wasn’t feeling so tired, it was so nice to have some energy 🙂. Being a generous person I gave my virus to dad, as you might guess he was well pleased 🙄, luckily he is making a swifter recovery than I have.
 
Awakened with what I thought 2as a hypo, no, a vertigo episode.

5.7

Roll on referral to ENT, to get the crystals inside my ears fixed
 
Hi to the early risers. A Len Goodman today, SEVEN! Well it is nearly Strictly season. Off to Glasgow today to meet the gang and it’s going to be VERY wet! Luckily, our chosen meeting place is only a 5 minute walk from Glasgow Central. Or 35 minutes for @Carolg who is renowned for getting lost! Looking forward to seeing everyone and having a good catchup. Hope you all enjoy your day too. 🙂
 
Good morning. A 'glorious night' - at 9 pm many claps of thunder followed by torrential rain. We have had no real rain since the first week of March. The olive growers will be ecstatic this morning.

Morning all, 7.9 for me today.
 
Morning all. My Libre has been crawling along the bottom all night, woke to a LO which in no way reflected how I was feeling, but it recovered to a respectable 4.9 ten minutes ago, and now it’s 5.7. Must have had a hippo lying on it all night.
 
5.4 for me. Looks like another wet weekend. 🙄
