Thank you 🙂 but I thought the difference was supposed to be just 2 - 3mmol :confused:

Well, you're really not far off, and it could be due to slight inaccuracies in the meter readings even from the same finger at the same time, tests can vary slightly. Also, it's possible that your evening meal bolus still had a little way to go when you took your bedtime test. So, I think that drop is certainly acceptable (although it wouldn't be if you were 5.0 before bed, of course, as that would have meant a mega-hypo! 😱)
