Group 7-day waking average?

4.3 for me and glad it's Friday but just want a bit of sun for gardening but will do it with a brolly if I have to.
 
Good morning everyone 🙂

7:35am - waking - 4.7 again grrr!! - 18u tresiba taken - I suppose at least it wasn't hypo
23:42pm - 4.0 - bedtime - had 2x 2 finger kit kats for bedtime snack - this was also after having an Indian takeaway so carb guess mustn't have been right - I also took 2u off my humalog to what the bolus adviser said
 
Just had a call from Mr Eggy, echocardiogram was just the same as his last one three years ago and he had another ECG which was fine. Phew! The results will be looked at by cardiologist consultant and if needed he’ll be called back to see them. It’s thought he overdid it in Arran, walking and climbing and possibly overdid the alcohol too. Well, we were on holiday! 🙄I’m so relieved. Thanks for all your good wishes.🙂
 
7.7 for me this morning, but looks like I forgot to take my meds 2 days running, plus another carby tea. A spinach and ricotta pasta from Tom Kerridge's lose weight and get fit cook book, lovely recipes, but many are too high in carbs, was absolutely delicious though, another one my son picked, so going to ask him to look at carb contents for next week's menu, maybe one high carb in the week is ok. I can always add extra carbs or add a bread roll to his portions.

@Bloden - congrats on your HS.

@SueEK - I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get a negative result.

Have a good day everyone, nearly the weekend, although it is a working weekend for hubby.

Morning all, 6.9 here, sensor is still generally reading 1mmol/l above a fingerprick though, as was the previous one. The log is telling me I haven’t been in the red for three weeks, I know otherwise!
Good luck to Mr.Eggy, @eggyg, hope everything comes back as it should.

Snap @Robin - we’re BG twins this morning! Stayed level and got a 6.9 after my morning dog walk too.

Suns out here, so may have to bust out some shorts for dog walk 2 which is happening late morning / lunchtime (poor pooch!).

Congrats @Bloden on the House Special, and really pleased to hear Mr @eggyg ’s ticker is in fine fettle.

Have a good day everyone 🙂
 
I'm with you @freesia on the 7.2 step and quite happy with that since I am in such good company. Still having to stack my evening corrections though to stay in range. Exercise is going to be the key to sorting that problem so I really need a good kick up the backside to get going with that again. Mentally I am struggling at the moment and that makes motivation for anything difficult. I know from experience it will pass though.

@Bloden Congratulations on your House Special

@Micheal12421 Hope your levels are back up and more stable now.

@eggyg Good to hear Mr Eggy is all checked out and nothing new to be concerned about

@Robin Really surprised that your sensor is reading high. I haven't had one do that except at high levels, usually once I get into double figures. All the rest have been reasonably consistently low by 1mmol but the previous one was 2mmols low which put a lot of undeserved red ink on my school report!
Do you still have the original Libre or have you upgraded?
I sorted my Libre 2 replacement reader yesterday, so I am all ready for the changeover when it happens, but not in any rush. Just checked my BG meter and it is 4 days since I last did a finger prick! I love Libre, even if it does tell porkies some times!

This has only happened since I upgraded to the Libre 2. My original Libre always used to read slightly under at the bottom, and over at the top. I did an overlap on my first sensor, for a very unscientific comparison, here, but I haven’t updated that thread with readings from my second sensor, because some of the comments I got thought I was slagging off the whole system, or being too unscientific.
I'm finding the Libre 2 low warning alarms useful, though, when I’m gardening or out walking, I don’t need to keep checking and swiping (and if I’m gardening I tend to forget) but the last twice, I've had hypo warning signs before the Libre has alarmed, so I’m setting the alarm threshold higher. I have also been switching the alarm off at night, after OH was unimpressed at being woken up for what turned out to be a compression dip!
 
My test has come back negative so upwards and onwards for my jollies
@Bloden congrats on your HS
@eggyg that’s great news

I hope they settle down again soon @rebrascora and you get your motivation back
 
Just got the letters, this afternoon as post can be very late in the day, for registering to vote & still surprised to get a letter for my mum who passed away in 2015. Got a letter for her to do jury duty last year & it’s a wee bit of a shock, then & now, that I’m still getting stuff like that! 😱 Filled in the forms online & put the date of her death when filling in hers.🙄 I thought I’d informed al people who need to know at the time & obviously left out some!🙄 So, I can’t help but be a little bit sad, just now, thinking about my mum!:(
