Group 7-day waking average?

Good Morning All

5.5 this morning before breakfast. see if I can go 3 hours between meals as this is what I have discovered keeps the Blood glucose lower. We'll see.

Have a great day all.
 
Oops. 10.3 this morning.

Late eating of guessed carbs leading to incorrect correction etc
But went to bed on a 9.3 and vertical dropping. Panicked so had a JB.
Not so sensible, but I slept well!!

Nothing from @Northerner. I hope you are okay.
 
Good morning everyone. A lovely 6.0 but feeling very fed up after four weeks of this broken and feeling generally achey with headaches. Fracture clinic tomorrow morning.
@KARNAK Ted good luck with your appointments x
 
I have spent two weeks by initially scanning the wrong arm, I started a new Sensor yesterday and and am scanning the wrong arm again 🙄:D

Good evening, sorry it's still just about morning! 😱 :D 5.8 for me after an unheard of 11 hours sleep 😱 I developed shocking backache yesterday, still sore this morning :( Pretty sure it's bad posture, happens from time to time :( Actually makes it difficult to take my asthma medication as breathing in deeply is really painful! :(

I guess I needed the sleep! 🙄 Thanks for missing me @Kaylz and @SB2015 🙂 Speaking of 'missing', where is @Lanny? I do hope all is OK with you, my friend {{{HUGS}}}

I was just wondering the same about Lanny myself yesterday!

Hope your back is feeling better soon and as hard as it may be for you, TAKE IT EASY FOR A DAY OR A FEW!!!!

Hello peeps, a not surprising 6.4 this morning after a VERY bad diet of carb laden foods yesterday.

Really should not eat lovely home baking but it was delicious

Have a good day everyone
 
Good morning folks🙂

Woke at 7.30 for a wee (7.30 is no time to get up, for sure) and found I was 4.3. Well, as the line was sinking I chewed a couple of Dextro tabs and went back to sleep. Woke at a much more civilised 9.15 on 6.0, which is fine by me.🙂

It’s sensor changing day today. I must be a Libre addict, because that hour’s wait for info seems awfully long:confused:.

Anyway, it seems BoJo is once, twice, three times a loser. Time for a Commodores song, I think. I’ll probably have that as an ear worm when I nip down into the village this morning for a prescription and milk. In the sunshine, as it happens, but it isn’t warm.

Have a good day everyone. It’s nearly the weekend again🙂
 
A massive 9.5 for me this morning, after being in the 7's all day yesterday. Down to 7.2 after breakfast, so hopefully coming down now. I just really hope I am not getting the throat infection that is apparently going round our office as I am off on holiday on Saturday and I don't want to be ill.
 
I have spent two weeks by initially scanning the wrong arm, I started a new Sensor yesterday and and am scanning the wrong arm again 🙄:D
I reckon that just goes with using the Libre, and takes about a week to settle in to the correct arm, and then...

Good to hear from you.
Glad that you managed a good sleep. You obviously needed it. I hope that the back starts to feel better.
It took me a long time before I was convinced to take pain killers consistently when needed, rather than intermittently. I now find it helps me to avoid additional problems as I am more likely to maintain a better posture.

Done this many times! 😱 I prefer my left arm, to be honest, and have decided to just use that in future - all my 'failures' have been on my right arm. I don't get a big purple blotch from them any more, so just place them in a slightly different bit of the arm 🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 5.1 for me today 🙂 Shoulder/back still sore - feels like a trapped nerve or something below the shoulder blade. Slept well, despite going to bed early - surprised me after yesterday's 10 hour marathon sleep! Still dark, roll on Spring! 🙂
 
Good morning. 4.8 scan. This isn’t a waking number as I fell asleep in my nice comfy recliner sometime after dinner and woke up around 2 a m . Been watching a film on my iPad and bought another , film that is not an iPad :D.
My tum woke up very early too, 4 a m and demanded filling 😱, it is now sated with two slices of buttered wholemeal toast with some peanut butter on for good measure all washed down with a large mug of coffee with cream. If it starts screaming for more grub lunchtime , I will give it a pear .

I actually scanned the right arm this morning , wonders will never cease.

Hope you all have a good day.

I prefer my left arm too, mostly because I sleep in my right side , so it’s easier to scan if I wake suddenly.

I hope you backache eases soon.
 
Morning all. Bg 6.1 but libre is reading 8.2, did the same before bed, hoping it will fall in line as its been so great lately, a new batch of sensors so who knows.

I prefer my left arm too, mostly because I sleep in my right side , so it’s easier to scan if I wake suddenly.

Preference is right arm as sleep on left most of the time.
