Group 7-day waking average?

7.2, I am really pleased with this been trying really hard !

Well done 🙂

Mine was a disappointing 7.7. Had problems last night due to licking out the cake mix bowl 😱 I never learn in that dept, so temp basal and a few corrections kept things under 10 which was a relief.
 
The flat was pretty horrible , so back online looking again. BS crept up to 12 after breakfast and that was on scrambled egg !. Pete I have started my food diary and I am going to try to lose weight. Hope you well TinTin
 
Well best of luck with the food diary, it's helping me plus as I say clocking in on here every morning with my sugar, hope daughter has more luck finding a flat, me day off today all jobs done ready for work tomorrow 🙂
 
Morning back to 9.2, had bad hypo in early hours and probably guzzled too much lucozade ! Feel rubbish this morning from hypo :(
 
Morning all, 6.1 for me. Though at 2:30 this morning woke up shaking and trembling like hell and was a bit of a struggle to get in and out of bed.

Thinking it was a bad hypo checked my BS and it was 7.3 :confused: :confused: Went back to bed, and had a bad nights sleep, still a bit shaky this morning.
 
was actually amazed at my 6.9 this morning, lots of Chinese food last night so i was expecting double figures. i must actually be finally learning.

The Diabetes Fairy was playing with your head Pete 😱 I've had occasions exactly like that - would love to know what is going on! Those symptoms sound like a rush of adrenalin (which is also what happens when you are hypo), so perhaps something else caused it, like a bad dream? Sometimes you can drop low in your sleep and the symptoms wake you, but your liver has already reacted and released extra glucose, so your BG is already raised.
