My mornings are between 10.9 and 16.1 but I have only been diagnosed and on insulin for 13 days. I am T1 by the way.

Thanks Colin. I know it wont lower immediately, just seems so random sometimes.

Morning all on this grey day.
9.4 at 8:30 this morning. Yesterday it had stayed level all night and I intended to put a temp basal on last night, but didn't because I was 4.2 at bedtime, 2 JBs taken and then it rose all night. It's always a magical mystery tour, but not unexpected what with illness and pain in shoulders. However, the dreaded Covid has relented, my cold has dried up and I am nowhere near as tired after a decent night's sleep.
@ColinUK very glad to hear you had a negative test! Hope your cold abates soon!
Oh @eggyg you couldn't make your adventures up!
@Robin , @TinaD and @Jenny65 hope you all feel better soon.
@Ditto shame on you thinking you are old and you are not even 70 yet! I could give you a good few years and I still feel young in my head! You still have a lot of life to look forward to.

Glad you’re feeling better, I’m gradually improving. Have you managed not to give it to your husband, or is it too soon to say? I’ve a sort of inevitable feeling that my husband is bound to get it.

Welcome to the forum!
How are you managing with the diagnosis and the insulin?
What are you using?

So far Julian hasn't got it. It's rather odd, I got it last Feb and he didn't. He got it in June and I didn't! Hope your hubby doesn't get it.

I am doing ok to be fair. Got myself into a nice little routine with the injections. I am on levemir morning and night and novorapid for meals.
I've had it twice and had to isolate with hubby as we don't have room/bathrooms to live separately. He hasn't had it al all. Maybe the vaccine people should harvest his antibodies!

Urgh! A bit of a set back, there! 
I’ve just had an awful 14 to 16 hours overnight just now!😱
It all started around 19:30 ish when taking my inhalers, the clenil brown preventive inhaler has always burned to a certain degree more or less the back of my throat when taking it, set off an asthma attack after puff 3 to which I put my asthma attack plan into action: my throat must have been a bit more sensitive than usual due to my sniffle or whatever it was recently & the clenil’s burning just make my windpipe seize up! Ten puffs of the blue salbutamol inhaler, wait 10 minutes & if no improvement 10 more! I ended up wheezing for hours & stopped after 20 puffs, in 2 lots, of Ventolin as my heart rate was going crazy! I was dead tired & really wanted to sleep but, couldn’t sitting half upright in bed half day dreaming half dosing while wheezing away with my heart rate going nuts with even the slightest movement! I lost track of time but, eventually got up to find that as long as I didn’t move around I could breath more deeply without wheezing! So, I stayed up & ate like a oig on & off all night: you know the saying feed a cold & starve a fever; I’ve always eaten like a pig with a cold & don’t eat when it’s flu with a fever! It took ALL night but, my heart rate is finally back down to my usual 84/minute when it was 10 higher all night around 94! I took my inhalers, both of them the usual 4 puffs each around 6am this morning when my heart rate was just starting to come back down to around 88 as I started to wheeze a bit even upright as I was so, it went back up again: I’ve always felt that very slight increase in heart rate even as a child when taking Ventolin/Salbutamol; I just feel it EVEN more these last 14/15 hours!
But, breathing has definitely turned a corner & I CAN lie horizontal to sleep now without wheezing & heart rate is back down! Took my usual midday meds & 86 Tresiba again, 3rd day now, & trying to sleep as both my eyes are sore & continually wet from tears due to tiredness but, I’m still wired from the adrenaline that’s kept me awake all night!
My BS was high all night as it was hard to bolus as I kept keeping bits here & there all night & last corrected at 12:12 BS 15.7 which needs a correction of 20NR but, kept dialling it down & down as I WILL sleep at some point & being the 3rd lot of increased basal now it’ll be in more or less full effect so, eventually went for a conservative 12NR. If it’s still high when I wake, I’ll start again with corrections later?
I can breath now & SO relieved that’s it’s passed & will sleep round the clock now when the adrenaline wears off eventually! A Whacked Out Exhausted emoji! Hopefully soon to be followed by A Stream of Z’s emoji!
