Group 7-day waking average?

5.2 at home before driving to work and then it dropped to 3.9 before breakfast an hour later.
 
6.3 for me also, well happy with that 🙂
 
7.5 today. Like Mike, I overdid the pre-bed snack after a couple of 3.x's.🙄

10.2. Sigh.
 
Still fighting this darn cold with erractic readings - 9.0, not great x

An improvement from the 12s though! Very frustrating, but hopefully you/she will get down to good numbers soon 🙂

You're right is improving, fingers crossed for some stability soon, thank you 🙂

tsk, tsk. Naughty ! :D

Brilliant numbers suze. If you can get that teatime ratio working so you don't go low/high before bed (and then tell me how to do it 🙄), you'll be onto a winner.

I only had half though so not too naughty!! Lol

Well, not sure the theory is set in stone yet, I'll run with it as it is working for the moment and thanks to your suggestion! I tend to work my carbs, match the insulin to my ratio and then add 2 or 3 extra units (depending on the gi of my tea) ...i'm trying to diet at the mo so luckily I'm not snacking in the evening, unless a hypo!!

Knowing my luck, my diabetes and my body will prob decide to throw a spanner in the works next week and not work to this new ratio!!!

Northener - wasn't a baby causing the lows...boo hoo!!
 
6.9 for me this morning 🙂
 
6.1 this morning. Tonight my bg doesn't want to go above the 4's and sitting eating a couple of ginger biscuits before bed, a long time since I've experienced this problem:confused:

Hi toby. I would imagine ginger biscuits will be very slow at bringing your BG up. You'd have been better off having a jelly baby, waiting 10 minutes, then having the biscuit.🙂

Thanks, but my bg was 4.7 so I thought a couple of ginger biscuits would suffice to bring it up slowly over the next hour or two, had I been lower and nearer to the 4 then I would have had a JB as you say followed by a biscuit.
 
Happy to help :D

Always a gamble at that level before bed. Will it go down, up or level out ?

Off to bed now but will test before getting my head down. I expect it will be fine but may wake with a higher reading than normal, kind of think I give the dose for my evening meal:(
 
Getting my high latish-evening reading down was only achieved by swapping Lantus (which I tried splitting for months and months unsuccesfully) for 2x daily Levemir and juggling the doses and timings a la John Walsh but without him. LOL

Now pumping and thereby finding out, no long-acting insulin currently available has a profile that actually matches my own basal needs.

Isn't hindsight a marvellous thing? :D
 
Good morning 4.7 for me
