Group 7-day waking average?

That basal test will only be good for the weekend.
Workdays need a different basal. 🙂

I've been off all week so hope it doesn't go all wrong when I go back tomorrow.

My DSN however told me I don't need to keep testing during the night, just test before bed, then at 2am then on waking compared to your sticky note on basal tests

Your dsn is wrong 😡 Many people have more than a couple of basal changes from bedtime to rising in the morning. If people suffer from DP how does she expect them to find the start point of that? 🙄
I have just checked my basal pattern and have 6 very different basal patterns from bedtime until 8AM.
Bet the author of the sticky wont be to impressed to be given your dsn's info either 😱

I guess, better than 11.5-12 it was 6 weeks ago, I admit I am cheating at weekends, makes me feel human again, lowest has been 6.1, averaging about 7.2, aiming for lower but my BS makes no sense, high when I expect lows and vice versa, I think i'm unique! 😱:D 🙄
 
Morning, another 5.4 for me looks like my nice mid 4.0's are on the way out for the moment.
 
woke up at 17.3 & now 6.4 after correcting (think the fact i woke up with my pump tubing wrapped round my neck didnt help)

Those are huge drops overnight Whiskysmum, what on earth is going on do you think? That's as bad as the rollercoatser I was on before last January and if you feel the way I did then, you must be exhausted.

I reckon you should consider talking to your surgery/clinic about the medications you're on, something isn't right there.

i decided to sleep with it under my pillow instead of in my dragon pump pet.....
have avoided my usual lunch time low (caused by going out walking for my lunch) *dances*

am slightly self concious by using the multiwave function that i'm ticking & it sounds like the crocodile from peter pan..... 😱

Hi Alison,

I've just posted in the Missing In Action thread - I'm getting there now though & starting to feel better and back eating properly again - then I'm off on holiday again in a weeks time but this time in our country - Yorkshire - Primrose Valley - Haven 🙂
 
11.5 before bed, 13.7 this morning - may have to put my basal back up a bit.
 
Hi 6.2 yesterday & 6.7 today, a bit high but I couldn't resist a slice of came last night
 
Should read cake, can't spell!
 
8.1 but got a tummy bug and its all over the place despite not eating much at all
