Group 7-day waking average?

Got my first pot of 50 strips yesterday, and have never done a full day of tests before. Bedtime (3 hours after a carby dinner) was 6.9. Waking was 3.7. I didn't believe it so tried again after another hand wash... 2.8. I don't feel ill! Will see what the rest of the day brings.

That's a serious hypo Lee-lee - did you treat with sugary drink/glucose etc? I would talk to your DSN today - I know when I loose weight i usually need to reduce insulin.
 
9.1 this morning :(

Dunno if my basal might be too high now I've cut my bolus ratio. My liver dumps are very frustrating
 
Did a basal test last night. Results were
Ate at 3pm 6.1
5pm 8.6
7pm 7.6
9pm 6.0
10pm 6.2
11pm 6.5
12pm 6.1
3am 6.2
And I woke up to........
6.1 and very happy

Id be really happy with those results!!! Great stuff.

5.2mmol for me today

I'm a T2 on Metformin only! My insulin is produced only by my formerly overworked pancreas. Didn't feel at all out of sorts. Had a cup of tea, followed by yogurt and blueberries, then walked to work. Feel good today.
 
good morning....4.6 🙂
 
hmmm, 8.7 this morning. went to bed with it 7.8 and the machine worked out a correctional of 0.7 last night too (which I've just realised was wrong it should have recommend 1.6 as my target is 6.0mmol and i have a CF ratio of 1:1.6 at that time of night).

Bleeding pump!
 
5.8 today, good.

mmmmm.....i quite often over-rule the pump and add on extra unit/s to the suggested correction.
