Group 7-day waking average?

What split did you use Mike ?

Seems to have worked well. 4.2 is probably close to non-D waking.🙂

Slightly different to usual as I'm starting back at the gym this week so my basal is a bit high at the mo (though not quite by a whole u yet)

Est carbs 100-110ish

Est whole dose 14-15u (1:10 plus approx one third)

18:28 4.0 bit near the edge, had 2 fruit pastilles, injected 10u (thigh) and ate
19.56 4.7 (1.5 hours after) this is often the time for the second part of the split
20.40 4.6 2 hours in. Still too low to top up
21.22 5.0 +4u thigh (much later than i would normally give 2nd half of split, but initial dose mostly spent, so expecting BG to continue to rise with rest of carb load)
22.57 4.7 +12g cereal bar. Probably could have used 3u for second half of split

Fbg 4.2

So there you go. Chip shop every night from now on!!
 
5.8 for me today. Kerching!
 
5.5 Hurrah ! :D

See if we can keep the 5.x ball rolling 🙂

7.5 for me this morning. I was 4.6 before bed so thought I should have some toast - obviously didn't need it!
 
5.1 for me this morning 🙂
 
22.3 for me when I woke up at 5 am😱
 
5.7 for me this morning following my post meal of 10.9 yesterday afternoon. 🙂 Amanda
 
Good morning 4.1 for me

(had a 2.6 at 3 pm this morning, after girly drinks 8 bottles of wine between 4. I stopped after 4 glasses unlike the others 🙄 )

Nope I had all of my injections but this high BG is what happens in the early hours of the morning if I don't have humalog around 2 am-5am (there isn't a specific time) and have eaten a full evening meal. I usually eat at 7pm and It can be 6.0 at midnight and go up to 22 plus by 4am if I don't inject Humalog at the right time during the night. However if I have a relatively small evening meal or didn't eat I can have two or three hypos during the night. This is the joy of gastroparesis. The CGM usually stops me from having the really high BGs by waking me when I my BG goes up to 10 and I then inject thee extra units of humalog......but unfortunately I didn't set the CGM properly last night😱 If I hadnt woken at 5am it would probably have gone higher than 22
