Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning 4.4 for me
 
I'm stunned with a reading of 5.4!!!

I haven't had a reading as low as this for about 5 months 😱

infact all my readings for the last 4 days have been lower than my normal. do you suppose the magnesium tablets I started taking 2 weeks ago are having a positive effect?

That's a terrific result! 🙂 I have no idea if magnesium tablets do you any good, but whatever the reason is, it is good to see such perfect numbers - well done! 🙂
 
4.7 for me today...😛
 
Good morning 3.6 for me. Went to bed having eaten toast and a couple of glucose tabs after dropping to 3.4, surprised i was only 3.6 when I woke
 
2.30pm 19 so had 7 units of humalog it went down to 12.8 during night but upon waking back to 19 (the humalog pen is definitely working) so I've had another 5 units

That is a surprise Di. Does it need a reduction in levelmir do you think? Are you sleeping OK? I've had poor sleep lately and have found myself dropping lower in the night.

I hope the 5 units do the trick Amanda. It does sound as though it's doing something, given the drop you had with the 7 units, but I wonder why it came back up again so much? Might it be the stress from the work you are doing? Or perhaps the horrifying notion of my as The Diabetes Fairy? 😱 😉

Thanks very much Alan. The fun of imagining you as The Diabetes Fairy definitely reduced my stress levels:D. At a guess high BGs caused by stress and the food that I ate during the day being slow to leave due to the gastoparesis. Down to 15.2 now so it is going the right way and will be helped when I walk Susie soon
 
oooops! back up to 7.9 this morning after such great readings for 2 days.... but I didn't have a snack before bed last night in a bid to cut out some cals and help the weight-loss. perhaps I won't cut out the midnight snack after all 😛

No, it could be that snack is stopping the Dawn Phenomenon (when your liver gives you an extra boost of glucose) 🙂

You'll soon be at 1,000 at this rate, and receive your special, hand-crafted virtual certificate! :D

Great numbers, just shows what an infection (and temptations) can do to you! 🙂
 
Good morning! 4.3 for me this morning, which is a bit on the low side - it looks like I will have to reduce my lantus from 4 to 3 - reaching the point where I could really do with a half-unit lantus pen!
