Group 7-day waking average?

An off the scale 17.5 this morning. Then a drop to 4.3 once I got to work. What is it with diabetes - You just think you’ve cracked it and something else gets thrown at you.

Hope you’re ok @Gwynn. I have eye injection again next week. Doesn’t hurt but it’s the anticipation.

@freesia enjoy that bonus day and have a lovely weekend

Hope you’re soon feeling better @ColinUK
 
02:46 BS 7.4 with an hour or two of DP? :confused: A case of couldn’t drop off again after call of nature about 00:30 ish?🙄 Finally got up & ate breakfast straight away: possibly the empty stomach stopped me from sleeping a bit more; now just finished munching a chicken, smoked salmon & prawn sandwich & veg soup!😛 I went to bed without dinner, did that the last few days actually, & woke up hungry!o_O

A very early Very Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 😉

Call to report in to DSN later & I definitely think 80 Tresiba is ok as was a bit caught off guard with yesterday’s DP busting of 16 units NR for half an oatcake with BS 4.8 in just an hour so dialled down the breakfast dose from 40 to 36 units & still ended up 5.5 hours later at BS 5.1 a whole 1mmol lower than what I woke up on! So, only the DP busting dose when in target range needs adjusting down to 14 units & everything else seems ok with the usual NR doses of 40, 36 & 32, if I DO eat dinner? :confused:
 
A 7.0 for me today after a night at footbal (Spurs v Brentford). Followed by a ‘turn’ at the station. I was on my feet in the bar and on the platform for 1.5 hours and suddenly dizzy and felt sick and needed a seat. I took some medi I had for my heart which helped and got home ok. I feel much better this morning but will email my cardio consultant about it. It will be a quiet day for me today. Have a good day everyone
 
Good morning everyone. I slept like a log last night. Lost weight in spite of the fish and chips. A bit sensitive to light this morning. BG 4.5 so that doesn't seem to have been badly affected by the op. Feeling a bit shaky and frail this morning. I think I will take it easy today.

Have a great day whatever you are doing today.
 
Good morning bit of a higher 8.1 this morning (to much snacking yesterday)
good to hear your op went well @Gwynn

tonight is my work Christmas dinner tonight down in Basingstoke,
so Extra lateral flow test today. we’re meeting at a Turkish Restaurant,
I’m sure there will be a good choice of meets and salad, I’ve never been to a Turkish restaurant but I guess I will probably avoid the rice and breads.

just thinking need to book flu jab

have a great day everybody
 
Good Morning! 5.6 so not to bad
 
6.2 this morning.
Cold is definitely easing but the cough is exhausting.
New running shoes (another pair of trail shoes) arrived yesterday and I love ‘em!

They’re a bit low key and reserved lol

@Gwynn great that the op went well and here’s to a speedy recovery!
 
Morning all, 5.9 here.Off to son's today to plant his Christmas present, a cherry tree. He must be getting old, it’s the first time he’s wanted something that doesn't have a plug on the end of it since he was about 8!

There’s something rather magical about giving trees/plants as gifts I feel.
The folks are getting a very young, very young, hedgerow from me this year - I’ve included things like dog rose, hazel, field maple, hawthorn, silver birch, blackthorn and dog wood.

They are such huge drinkers. Not.
They have booze left over from when dad was bar mitzvah aged 13. He’s 82 now.
 
7.1 today and off for eye screening soon, sunglasses at the ready though so miserable weather wise here I think I’ll look a bit daft wearing them. Daughter is taking me and then we are going out for breakfast. Have my 8 yr old grandson for the weekend as mum and dad away at Arundel by candlelight so the tree and decks are going up, he will love doing that. I will be pooped by the end of it as he is like the Duracell bunny lol. Got to fit the shopping in as well today so best get on.
Have a good day all xx
 
Managed some more sleep after last night’s delayed dinner: that’s what I’m calling my meal earlier! 🙄 So, up properly NOW with 07:39 BS 5.3 with no DP! Yay! MUCH better!:D Just finished munching a small breakfast: just a bit more than a DP bust; vegetable soup!😛
