Group 7-day waking average?

@Michael12421 how is your friend doing, have you been able to stay in touch? He is still very sick and we stay in touch thanks to WhatsApp. I don't like to disturb him too often but do worry.
Sorry to hear this Michael, I hope he gets better very soon and I’m sure he appreciates your concern x
 
5.3 .... so close!
Happy birthday @ColinUK
Have a good rest of the day one and all. I’m off to plan lessons for next week with no interruptions for a few hours. I’m getting used to on line proper teaching now.

There’s nothing else for it but, to go Australian: G’day mates! 😳🙄😉

Waking was 13:05 BS 6.7. WHAT a night I had of it yesterday! 😱 I was fighting to head of hypos & up half the night hence, sleeping in today!o_O Still, the positive is I’m more or less back to normal now if my insulin was WAY too much all of a sudden! It all started with after dinner reading being a bit on the low side but, still nothing to panic about 19:58 6.9 Timesulin cap read 1 hour 39 minutes after NR. Kept an eye on it & good thing I did 20:23 BS 4.8 JB & just after it the hypo racing heart & waited 10 minutes, the longest I could wait, & half an oatcake! Thought I would be alright but, felt the hypo racing heart again 23:34 BS 4.6, same again JB 10 minutes wait & half oatcake. In a bit of a quandary as midnight LR was coming up! I decided to delay it until I knew what’s what with my BS but, then nodded off, heading off hypos are tiring too, & startled awake just after 3am 03:05 BS 7.9 to put in -4 & back to 40 units before nodding off again! Heard the midday alarm but, rather irritated by it switched it off & went back to sleep knowing it would be too early, not 12 hours apart, after midnight LR went in late. Woke with the above figure, BS 6.7, just after 1pm. Had breakfast -2 NR dose 14:36 BS 7.9 again a smidge bit low & needs keeping an eye on & had my LR also -4 & back to 60 units.

Will still be kept hopping on my toes as I test, test, test as that 7.9 at just after 90 minutes of eating with the LR, that just went in, could bring me low again? o_O🙄

There’s just a tiny bit of tenderness if I press hard under my right chin but, things are more or less back to normal! 🙂

Just a bit of a careful eye on the BS: ain’t diabetes FUN at times, NOT! 🙄:D😉
 
8.8 this morning. I had my AZ jab yesterday and felt awful today
i slept most of today and ate very litthe I’m hoping to be better in the morning
I’m having the jab tomorrow morning and hoping I don’t suffer a reaction. My brother in law has had the two jabs, was fine with the first but had a reaction after the second.
 
My average Monday to Sunday is a satisfactory 5.3.
 
4.5 for me today. 🙂

Morning all, 3.5 here according to the current Libre sensor.. When I checked a 4.5 on the sensor yesterday, I was 5.5 on the meter, so I think it’s just a low reading sensor. Not worth troubling Abbot about, it’s fine when I'm not lying on it, but it’s now showing my time in target as 16% below, so has ruined my stats!
(it’s come up to 4.3 just while I've been typing, just because I'm now sitting up!)
 
Morning

Another crappy 10.4 today, just can't seem to sort myself out at the moment :( have already sliced my finger open today too trying to open a packet of ham! Urgh
xx
 
I’ve been worrying over night about my exercise regime vis-à-vis my vaccination this morning. Dr Google tells me that moderate exercise is a good thing both before and after the jab.
 
Morning all. 🙂 8.1 here.

Well, I gave myself a very dodgy haircut yesterday - think Jason Donovan circa 1990 / classic Ozzie mullet, for the youngsters to get an idea. Will have to have another go today. It’ll either end up looking like I used a bowl as a guide, or I’ll just have another no.3 or thereabouts. Lockdown hair ROCKS!!!😎
