Group 7-day waking average?

So, having a weird one today. Went to bed an I was 4.8, woke up and I'm 6.8, just checked myself now and I'm 7.0, which is really high for me.

Wondering if my insulin has gone out of date or something (waiting for ASDA pharmacy to get some in). Does that happen? This batch was in the fridge as I got two lots from the pharmacy at the hospital when I was first diagnosed and its just about run out now.
I hope you managed to get a supply of your insulin yesterday. I find it’s wise to reorder when you still have at least a a weeks supple as a buffer.
 
Morning @Ljc
5.0 for this early riser. 🙂
I'd like to say that it's all the excitement of Christmas coming closer. 🙄
But I can't - it's just another little bout of my occasional insomnia. :(

Have a great day everyone.

My pancreas seems to have woken up and is bringing me down slow but sure 🙂
 
Morning my fellow insomniacs. Been awake since 1.55am and been up since 3.40am. BG at 4.45am, 6.8. Tried to have a kip on the sofa but the smell of the Christmas tree was making my nose run, I really am allergic to Christmas. Glittery cards and wrapping paper bring me out in a rash and although I love a real tree they don’t love me! Pleased to report an improvement in the back area after I pushed myself to the limits yesterday, ironed five bridesmaid and two flower girl dresses. Then went into town with stressed out soon to be married daughter. OMG! Pain was off the scale but last night and this morning I actually feel normalish! Fingers crossed it’s not a fluke! Today I will mostly be having nana naps! Have a great day all. 🙂

Morning all. 6.5 for me today. Bucketing with rain outside, hope it doesn’t come through the roof as we have a couple of tiles missing, will send hubby in the loft to check. Got a beautiful hamper from work yesterday full of carbs, even organic carbs are not going to pass muster aargh! Dropped it off at our local hospice on the way home so someone will enjoy it. Have a good day everyone.
Have a rest today @eggyg glad you are feeling a little better xx
 
Morning all and 6.4 for me.

Currently still waking up despite having fed cats. Shower and coffee required.

The above was yesterday's which I managed not to post. Today it's a wayward 7.3 thanks to a slightly over cooked bedtime hypo.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Morning Folks

Reporting a reading of 9.3 for this morning.

Jack Frost is about on doggy walk but he hasn’t moved in completely
 
Morning All, 6.5 this morning from me
 
Good morning . 7.2 today. I only tried to scan with the remote for my radio :D:D
That’s nothing @Ljc. We were out the other day having lunch and hubby reached for his (old-fashioned) mobile in his top pocket...it was the tv remote, hahaha.😛

Morning folks.🙂 8.6 here after a pesky bedtime hypo...I’m so insulin sensitive at the mo!🙄

I’m sure I read your yesterday’s post yesterday @khskel.

So glad to hear you’re feeling better-ish @eggyg. Fab dresses! I love the winter sparkle.:D
 
Morning all, 4.1 here on the new sensor, I think it’s a sensor squish problem, rather than the manifestation of a completely new pattern. I normally go up from 3am, not down!(unless you know different, Diabetes Fairy!)

Morning all, 7.6 for me today. That was a long day yesterday, normal 8 hours today.
 
Sorry to hear about your cooker, what a pain esp at this time of year I hope the replacement works well.
well we've just wired it in and pushed it back and all seems well so fingers crossed xx
 
morning 🙂

Jeez it a chilly one today, due to get the bus to the other town at 13:50 for a 14:30 appointment so I'll certainly be wrapping up warm, may need to stretch to a pair of legging under my joggers! 😱

5.9 for me

Have a nice day folks
xx
 
Good Morning all, 5.6 mmol this morning, may just have naughty toast this morning 😛
Overcast and damp here in the south, if it was any colder I'd say the sky looks like it could produce snow.

Have a great day everyone
 
Made into the 5s this morning with a 5.9, but somehow I only have 2 days left of my canagliflozin, but 10 days left of all my other meds, no idea how that has worked out, oh well lets hope my electronic prsecription works quickly, otherwise I will be seeing for a couple of days what my bloods are like using only Metformin.
