Morning all on this beautiful Valentine's day - clear blue skies and barely a breeze today.
10.3 - hardly surprising as I had the mother and father of all hypos last night. It began at around 22:45 and the last alarm screeched at 02:10, when hubby went downstairs and made me a cup of tea with 3 spoons of sugar. Meantime I'd consumed multiple jelly babies, 2 cereal bars, 3 ginger cookies and several Dextrose tablets plus my basal was on a temporary -50%. Every time I drifted off to sleep the bloody thing went off... not always in the red, but 4.1/4.2 some of the time, course it wasn't just keeping me awake, but hubby too. No real idea what caused it except I didn't eat all my dinner, but I had only bolussed for 20g anyway and I had eaten most of the jacket potato, some of the cauli cheese and the stewed pears and raspberries. It was very scary.
Although JugGluco is giving me alarms I am bereft without LibreLink and tearing my hair out to see any kind of a pattern.
Anyhoo... enough of all that! Hope everyone is well today and HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
