Group 7-day waking average?

We seem to have quite a few people in the 9s this morning, I suspect today might be our highest average day so far! Hope all of you get better readings tomorrow 🙂
 
5.3 from me this morning which I am really surprised with considering I was out for a meal last night and had strawberry cheesecake and ice cream for pudding....
 
7.6 this morning, quite pleased with that after a bad night!

22.35 - 5.9
00.24 - 1.9! 😱 (30g carb orange juice + half tube fruit pastilles)
00.39 - 2.7 (15 g carb orange juice + couple of fruit pastilles)
00.54 - 3.6 (three fruit pastilles)
01.08 - 4.3
 
7.5 for me, not unhappy with that as yet another night out was enjoyed, including a very yummy Thai meal!
 
A rather poo 11.8 for me :-( but I was naughty last night and had a Chinese

Chinese food is so damn tasty

Wow Phil! That's an awful lot of carbs in half an hour to bring you up! 😱 Did you press the 'Extra Massive Bolus' button by mistake? (Which I presume all pumps have)

Thanks Alan! That really made me laugh :D
 
Woke this morning at 3.9 after spending a couple of hours at A&E yesterday. Had a hypo on the High Street and got carted off. They gave me a Glucagon injection and tested me every few minutes till I got to an acceptable level and sent me home in a taxi. I haven't slept, was too scared to close my eyes and am now sat in the office wearing matchsticks to kep them open.

Oh no! Really sorry to hear this Ally :( I guess your spluttering pancreas is to blame. Hope you get through the day OK and get a good nights sleep tonight with nice stable numbers, take care.
 
Oh dear, 15.9 this morning, I have no idea what is going on, was about 8 before bed. Back to the 2am alarm I think :(

Goodness, that is a big change from yesterday! Hope you get decent figures tonight, or at the very least some clue as to what might be happening.
 
4.8 this morning but I did have two humalog injections during the night (although at one point decided that I was too tired to respond to the CGM which is very naughty of me but I did avoid the temptation to throw it at the wall when it buzzed). On a serious note the CGM waking me in the night means that I'm only waking up to a BG around 19 once a week at maximum and usually less often than that, so it's a huge improvement
 
Well done AJ! Really good results 🙂
 
Thank you Natalie🙂
 
4.2 for me this am....thought i posted earlier but i guess not lol
