Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning and its a straight 5.0 here. Weight 66.7Kg. All good.

Had a strange thing last night, my annoying tinnitus suddenly got worse on the right side and was accompanied with a slight numbness in the right ear. The increase in tinnitus and numbess have cleared this morning. Back to the old constant high pitched shreek. Got me a bit worried for a bit.
 
Morning all, and no, I haven’t wet the bed! Up early as just couldn’t sleep, been awake since 5. Anyhoo, a very surprising 5.5 for me after an astonishingly high 10.8 at bedtime! Don’t know why at all, got home at 5pm after a 9 mile walk, absolutely starving and sweaty, low fours, so got the tea on ASAP, ratio 1:20 as obviously didn’t want to be in hypo territory at bedtime. So shocked to see that high number 5 hours after eating. And I thought I felt shattered because of the walk, could barely keep my eyes open all evening! Didn’t correct as corrections at bedtime make me nervous and just crossed my fingers and toes. And here we are. I’ll never understand diabetes as long as I live. Have a super Saturday. 🙂
 
Well, no ill effects from my first vaccination yesterday. So far. 🙂

Except maybe for a long and convoluted dream last night involving Stephen Fry, Bamber Grassgroin (from the early series of University Challenge), the International Space Station and an incredibly old Commodore Pet computer. 😱

Or perhaps, an unusual craving for pork sausages for breakfast. o_O

Oh and a 4.6 on my early morning jab and dab, which coincidently is the same as the outside temperature and also three times my current internet speed test result. :D

Been awake since about 3am. Honestly wish I’d had a better night of sleep but heigh ho.
Anyway this morning for me clocks up a 6.1.
 
Just dozed off and woke myself up with an almighty snore!!!
 
@MeeTooTeeTwo Bamber Grassgroin? I think you were watching a different University Challenge to me! Was it the Carry on version?
It’s a 6.3 for me, can we make this figure the new HS it seems to be my favourite number!!
activity Friday was attempted two wet walks cut short but I managed 15,000 steps so still better than staying in sat sitting!
 
on a cold Saturday morning 5.9
 
Morning all. 😛 A cute little 5.0 for me.

Have you ever been given an explanation for your tinnitus @Gwynn ? Mine sometimes goes into overdrive too - glad to hear it’s returned to the just usual background noise.o_O🙂

I had to laugh at your comment @eggyg - “I’ll never understand diabetes...”. Every time I meet a new diabetes medic or nurse, the tell me to “look for the patterns, and adjust accordingly”. What patterns are they on about? They make it sound so easy!😳:D
 
4.8 for me today.

Enjoy the day!
 
Morning

Well used my last Aviva test strip at bedtime last night so this morning on the Contour Next One it was 7.5 with a Libre scan of 7.6, my case feels so empty given that the meter is so much smaller! lol

Absolutely bucketing here and mum has to do Lidl's today, she isn't best amused!
xx
 
Morning all, 4.7 here, managed a lovely sunny horse exercising session yesterday, we did a bit of jumping in the all weather arena, the ground is still too much of a mud bath to contemplate hacking over the fields and the roads get a bit boring, for horse and rider alike.
 
5.8 for me 2 days in a row.

lmao Grassgroin!
 
Woke with a reading of 4.0. A bit too close for comfort.

A beautiful sunny but cold morning. Determined to get out today after having spent the whole day yesterday busy inside and just didn’t fit in a walk.

Have a good day.
 
Morning all. After a night where the graph shows i hovered just out of range all night, its still a 9.6 this morning 🙄.
Cleaning and vaccuuming today. Hope you all enjoy your day.
 
Morning all,
Struggled to get a sensible reading this morning so left it for an hour and then got a 5.3.
Been out for 10k run since before the weather turns bad. I see @Bloden and others talking tinnitus... 😱 drives me mad day and night!!!

Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all. Oh yes I’ve only got an elusive 5.2 after correcting an 18.2 from a wonky cannula last evening. The roller coaster continues its thrilling ride 😳

It’s a beautiful sunny morning for now, off to the local slightly bigger shop to buy stuff. I had a phone call for a new plaster cast on Monday at 9am I was so excited about it I forgot my only other diary entry for the year was a food delivery at Monday at 9am! Changed the food delivery but next date is the 22nd.

Have a good day out there and keep safe 🙂
