Group 7-day waking average?

Congrats @EllsBells and @adrian1der and @Gwynn on your HS! A trio!!

Has anyone had much higher levels after having the Pfizer? After the first, my levels were ok but had the second one on Monday and i keep having high spikes into the 13s. I'm having to correct about 3 times a day. The only thing different is the second vaccine

I can't think of anything else it could be, unless i'm coming down with something although i feel ok. Meals are the same size/things i've eaten before, doing no more or less exercise, so the only thing i can think of is the vaccine.

I think on other threads, the consensus has been that the side effects are worse after the second Pfizer, the other way round from the AZ. Hope your BGs get better soon!

4.7 for me but an overnight dip into the red again despite eating a late high protein meal... 3 egg omelette and salad and one less unit of Levemir but I really swung the legs yesterday (and got soaked in the process) so hopefully I can do that again today and start shaving more units off my Levemir doses.

I PMed Clinton a few days ago but not had a reply. Concerned that things are not good with his sister's health situation.

I was wondering about @Clifton.

Let you know next week! After the 1st one I was higher than usual for about 2-3 weeks.
 
I woke a little early and it’s a 5.7 at 05:40. Looks like a nice day to be in the garden.
 
06:06 BS 6.7 🙂 Aw! Just a smidge bit lower & it would have been all 6’s: 06:06 & 6.6!:D But, woke up wheezing away & puffing like a steam train when alarm went off so, took 4 puffs each of my two inhalers BEFORE testing so, it’s wee bit higher than it would otherwise be & why I usually always test first before inhaling!🙄

A Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉
 
7.4 for me today and I am very happy with that as I hypoed 7 (yes SEVEN) times yesterday! I knew that huge Levemir dose would cause me problems eventually. Didn't inject any last night and had a pretty steady straight line. No idea how much to inject this morning and I can't afford to get it wrong as I am taking a horse away in the trailer today for a day out..... first outing in well over a year so I am a bit stressed about it, especially as I am using Ian's car which is an automatic and I haven't driven that for over a year, let alone a trailer with a horse in it. I know automatics are easier but I get an itchy left foot.... it doesn't like being idle and I have to concentrate to keep it out of the way!
Hope everyone has a good day!

Good luck with everything. My trick was to tuck my left foot away under the seat until I got used to it. I hope the day goes without a hitch.
 
Good morning and its a bright morning here in Lytham, although menacing clouds look set to make things a tad more interesting as the day goes on.

Incredibly another 5.2 this morning. I wonder if I can manage a hat trick tomorrow.

We didn't manage to get out yesterday but today promises .... shopping.
 
Happy Thursday 6.1
blood test done yesterday 2nd jab tomorrow (and plenty of work to do in between)

Have a Great Day Everybody
 
5 on the nose and on the fingertip this morning. 🙂
Well done @Gwynn on your 2nd HS in a row.

Dez
