Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all. 6.6 (and no i didn't miss off a 1 by accident)
So picture me yesterday:
"Oh sensor is about to end shall I put on a new one?"
"Nahh will have a wee break while my BGs are just tragic and rubbish and save the 2 I have left for a few weeks."
My BG: Quick no ones watching...lets do something amazing where she cant see if it was the correction or basal or pancreas that made us look amazing.
Absolutely typical!

I actually properly slept last night from about 7pm until 5am without waking up (that I can remember) and didn't wake up with too much congestion in my chest. A wee glimmer of hope that things are looking up :D
 
Good morning a respectable 5.4 today

having woke up in the middle of the night and 3.3 so going low
popped a few lifts and straight back to sleep (following a bathroom visit)

Have a great day everybody
😎
 
Good morning everyone. Very dark and wet looking out there but it is not raining.

BG 4.5 slightly lower than usual.

Looking forward to tomorrow except the fasting bit. They requested fasting bloods so no eating from 10pm tonight through to 10am tomorrow. Not that I eat during the night, but, no breakfast?

Today pondering a new major update to my App following on from recent super improvements linking supplements to my meals to ensure no deficiencies or overdoses. It makes the day on day 'diabetic meal Soduko game' much harder but a lot more fun.

Today nothing planned. Yesterday did increased exercise to combat the missed afternoon walk the day before (213 minutes).

BP this morning 120/80 bingo!
Pulse 62

Have a great day everyone whatever you are doing.
 
Morning all, 9.0 here. Having accidentally forgotten night time basal the other day, and not had too shabby a result, I thought I'd experiment to see what happened on a normal night when I hadn’t had a couple of glasses of wine. (Mainly because I found myself in the 5s at bedtime and would normally snack to keep my levels up for the first part of the night) Well, I had a nice flat line in the 5s until 4am, when I started a steady climb up the hill to 9 by the time I woke up. Won’t be trying that one again, I only take around 2.5 units at bedtime, but I obviously need them!.
 
Morning all. Woke to a 6.9 today.
 
5.1 today for me. 🙂
A mackerel sky this morning - I wonder what it'll bring?

Morning all. Up a bit later than usual and it’s a Len Goodman. Seven! :rofl: I was only a 6.4 at 6.20 when I got up ( for the third time) for the loo, should have stayed up but was very weary after yet another restless night. Still weary but hunger got the better of me, so here I am.

British Gas turned up, early! Two chaps, one was overseeing a recently qualified meter putter inner, not sure that’s the official title. I had just started to make my veg curry for the tea as I knew the gas would be knocked off, when they arrived at 9.45. So I did what we all do when workman are in the house, twiddled my thumbs, wandered about, read my book, went on FB, plumped the cushions, generally nothing worth while. Was glad when they left two hours later. Now the “proud” owner of a smart gas meter to go with the smart electric meter that was installed in June! Hours of fun watching the price go up before my very eyes! :( To add insult to injury we were handed a leaflet full of advice to reduce our consumption. Not sure we can do anymore than we’re doing now, just like everyone else at the moment. Anyhoo, the veg curry was good, apart from a tin of tomatoes and chickpeas everything else was from the garden. We’ve gone all Tom and Barbara, I’ve dusted off my 70s kaftan and am channeling Margot today, ie floating around doing nowt!:rofl: Younger forum members Google “The Good Life” if you haven’t a clue what I’m talking about.

Talking of food who watched Celebrity Masterchef last night? Chris Eubank, come back all is forgiven! They were absolutely rubbish. Makes good telly though.

Have a good day all. We are mild and wet today. 🙂
 
Morning it was 6.1 when I happened to wake up at 6.10 this morning wanted to make sure an earlier correction had gone done (I had something last night where it seems I got the carbs slightly wrong). By the time I actually got up and sorted back fast out it had rissim to 9.6

Chris Ewbank is so smartly dressed and not a bad cook either!

The cooking was awful compared to the last 2 weeks. Goodness knows how they can choose 2 semi finalists from this bunch. Hopefully they'll all up their game for the next 2 episodes.
 
Good morning folks!

A very nice 4.6 for me this morning (very happy with that :D) with a lovely straight but sloping line down from 8.7 at bedtime with a 2.5 reduction in Levemir. I like it when I make a good guess at my dose. 🙄 Slept like the dead and woke up refreshed but my old back is a bit stiff. Knocked a couple more units off my morning Levemir and need to go for a good walk to help loosen up and realign my body.

@rayray119 Good luck with your endoscopy today (I think)

@gll That is just typical. Is that your first in range waking reading? Delighted for you nonetheless. Roll on more readings like that even if they are sneaky!
 
good morning everyone 4.7 for me today wet and humid here this morning but looks like sun is trying to burn off cloud. Hope everyone has a good day 🙂
 
7.8 this morning which I’m putting down to the zopiclone last night.
My morning numbers have been creeping higher recently and I’m staying higher than normal through the day as well.
Possibly stress related or physical stress related to my leg/ankle stuff.
And it’s good to have a run of slightly elevated figures in the weeks before the next HbA1C blood letting of course.

I’m sure lack of exercise isn’t helping as I’m not back at the gym or even able to walk to/from the office yet. Got the tube to the office yesterday and took me 30 mins to walk from there whereas it is really a pleasant ten minute stroll usually.
That said I’ve provisionally booked an over 55’s yoga class on Friday. It’s at the gym and I’ve done this one before. It’s very very gentle but it can’t hurt to get some kind of yoga back in my healing regimen.
If it’s likely too much I can cancel on Friday morning after therapy.

Ooh the balance vertigo thing does seem like it’s that BBVVIP thing to me as it’s clearly about changing positions/levels.
Thankfully it’s only happened a few times and it cleared up after a couple of days. I’ll mention it to the gp if it returns but it seems there’s nothing really they can do. I might invest in a wobble board as it’s recommended that ten minutes twice a week on that really helps.
 
Morning

8.5 for me today

Have to let Bruce's mum know about a cooker soon so my task for today is looking for a cooker and fridge freezer with delivery option of either next Wednesday or a weekend, the only places I've come across are Argos and AO, at least 1 fridge freezer I liked the look of yesterday the company didn't even deliver to Scotland 🙄

Here's a pic of our new bed xx

Update just spoken to GP just now
he confirmed my latest Hba1c was indeed 53
not 58 as the Diabetic Consultant at the hospital had put in his recent letter (following a phone consultation)
so now I shall have to phone that consultants PA and get that updated at their end
but my GP did feel I might benefit from SGL2 medication which that consultant thought might be good for me.

It really is annoying when it takes longer to do everything because of an injury, I hope you are making progress.
Your reference to Yoga reminded me of a advert /poster on a lamp post. 'If you are interested in Yoga than start with bending down to pick up your dog poo'. and then the time and place of the classes.
 
Feeling left our, my order of testing strips (ordered a week ago) hasnt arrived so cant give my reading. In the meantime I am managing my levels by doing one of these after each meal! Excuse the pyjamas!
