Well, it's not a bad waking level then 🙂 I guess you are coming up for your 5th 'diaversary' in a couple of months - hard to know where the time went! It would be great if you could make it to the forum's 5th birthday in November! 🙂

Nice one Steff.
Mine was 2.9 plus another hypo in the night.
Have cut basal back even more as dropped to 1.8 very quickly yesterday afternoon as well.
Looks like a case of going right back to basics and resetting my basal from scratch. 😡

Oi! No slipping and no more excuses! Bedtime test tonight please! 🙂
 
A bacteria induced 17.7 this morning, corrected with 8 😱 units which bought me down before breakfast to 8.4 sadly back into low teens again :(

Rather peeved as:
1) I hoped the antibiotics I'm on would have started to kick in by now (the amount of pus in my throat says this is not the case)
2) I'm going on holiday next saturday (camping in Cornwall) and this had better bloody well be sorted by then.
3) I have the dreaded HbA1c the week I come back and it's going to be awful

*grumpy*

Sorry you are so unwell Aoife, do you think it would be a good idea to think about increasing your basal whilst running so high?

Nosey hat is now on... where abouts are you camping in Cornwall?
 
To be fair I hadn't thought about increasing basal as normally any illness would be over by now (I'm not one for being sick normally!) but I'll start tonight!

I'm going to Perranporth on holiday, hoping for an Indian Summer
