Good morning 🙂 6.5 for me today 🙂
I hope you enjoyed those G&Ts though @rebrascora! Did you have a good day?9.8 for me this morning and I was high all night between 9 and 11.... so much for alcohol dropping your levels... even 3 large G&Ts!
Actually my levels have been running high since the vaccine on Wed apart from hypos Wed night and I have had to increase my basal twice and still regularly jab corrections or be much braver with bolus insulin. I was shocked to find myself at 16.8 ( 😱 ) yesterday afternoon with a vertical upward arrow which was my highest reading for about 18 months! My graph looked like I ate Mount Everest for brunch, but it was carefully weighed and generously bolused for and I waited until I was 6.0 and dropping before I started eating, so I was rather aghast to get such a huge reading mid afternoon! 6 units of Fiasp, a walk and eventually one jelly baby steadied me down to the 5s and then mid 4s before my evening meal, so I felt that I managed it very well.
Frustrating that I had my highest reading in ages and I didn't even have any birthday cake!
Happy Birthday Mrs Anitram5.3 on yet another freezing Berkshire morning. Minus 3.5, but no frost.
My wife's birthday today but obviously no dining out. Fortunately the restaurant we would have gone to is doing takeaway so we can still have what we would have chosen, we'll just be eating it at home instead.
Looking forward to a real sportsfest this weekend - cricket, tennis, rugby and football. Not confident of Wales beating Scotland in the rugby as we have seven of the regular players out injured and the Scots look to be in good form.
