Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 🙂 7.2 for me today.

Can I have a copy of Diabetes for Dummies please? I need the '37 years done and still none the wiser' chapter. I've had a really weird few weeks needing my basal rates reduced to 60% of normal and still been having lots of readings in the 2's. What's going on and when did I upset the diabetes fairy :confused::confused:

It can be such a puzzle at times, can't it? I hope things settle down for you soon. I was 5.6 this morning 🙂
 
11.5 for me this morning :( Really must start behaving.
 
5.4 today, Patty appears to be behaving herself again now, although she's prone to tantrums so I'm not celebrating yet. Flower I think we should write a new book, between us all we must have hundreds of years of experience :D
 
Good morning Unhappy with 7.2 Retested as doesn't feel right and got 7.5! Thought I would have dropped after getting back on track with very low carb few days following the Christmas choccies Well done Kooky Fingers crossed you keep those figures now 🙂
 
Morning all.🙂 6.9 here.😛

Hmmm. What title would I give my chapter of our version of Dbs 4 Dummies? Life on the Diabetic Rollercoaster. OR Never A Dull Moment. 🙄
 
A very disappointing 12.1 for me :-(
 
Morning all, a 6 today after a lovely 3am hypo, my own fault I tried to have a life and eat a late lunch followed by a late supper, Patty did not like it :(

My chapter of the book will be called "How to tame your Pancreas in five easy steps". Hint the last step involves stabbing her with a blunt spoon until she submits.
 
Morning all.🙂 6.9 here.

Only 5 steps, Kookycat?:D
 
Good morning 7.5 today Ate 2 biscuits during evening and a profiterole with cream

Just one profiterole? I have no will power with choux pastry, so we'll done!
 
Yes Kooky just one No choice really as greedy family made sure of that! But was one too many I know
 
Late in the day, but 12.1 for me again :(
 
Morning 6.4 for me today.
 
Good morning Northerner and KookyCat. 2.7 for me after a hypo at midnight. First time I've had this since being on the pump. I think it is probably because I went Nordic walking for the first time yesterday.

Sorry to hear this :( I find that any new type of exercise has the potential to drop my levels lower than the type I am more accustomed to (running!). Hope things settle for you and there's no repetition! 🙂
 
Thanks Northerner. At least I now know to lower my night time basal next time I do the Nordic walking🙂
 
Good morning 7.2 after a night (and no profiteroles!) night all Hope you have a good day
