Group 7-day waking average?

7.8 for me this morning which I am pleasantly surprised with as I have been feeling awful since yesterday. Nothing specific just tired, achy, dizzy mussy type headache and blurry eyes. I don't think waiting 4 hrs for a fasting blood test helped either. Just hoping I shrug off whatever I have got by tomorrow as I am supposed to be giving a deep tissue massage.

Seems to be happening quite a bit with me and you recently! haha xx
 
8.7 for me today. A little higher than I’d like, but the sensor shows no wobbly shenanigans, just a gentle even rise from the 7.whatever when I went to bed. Probably just my day-3 infusion site running out of steam.

Have a great day in the sunshine everyone, and have a fab holiday @Stitch147

I had a rollercoaster day yesterday , really busy and warm weather created havoc with lows and highs. Was too high before bed but took correction which wasn't enough, it's coming down now though.
 
9.2 high for me. 😱

Still have virus and extremely stressed, extremely. 🙄

Bon Voyage Stitch. 🙂

Sorry to hear you're still feeling rough Ditto, hope you feel better soon hun. Stress plays a major part in impacting bgls so not surprised your number was higher than normal. Easier said than done but try not worry over this whilst you have other things on your mind. Take care and take it easy xxx

I tried to reach my DSN on the phone all day today & got through to speak to her at last. But, already had another fake hypo episode at 15:00 after lunch at 11:00. Not as bad as yesterday as I didn’t go as low:15:00 BS 6.5 dropped from 12:48 BS 9.9. Yesterday: 18:00 BS 5.2 dropped from 12:40 BS 10.3.

It can be frustratingly hard to reach my DSN at times! My lunch time dose of Novorapid is to be reduced from 6 to 4 until I see her & the dietian next week!

Am still recovering from the deep internal freezing & still have the heater at full blast! But, don’t feel as bad as I did yesterday or about 3 weeks ago! Almost warmed up now & will be switching off the heat soon. But, feeling tired now & will probably sleep: just when I got my normal pattern back & stayed awake after lunch! Fake hypo, as it was, still makes me really tired!

I know it’s good, in the long term, to be on less insulin! But, in the short term; keeping me on my toes!

DSN dosen’t think I was really hypo but, was dropping down!

Will start the reduced lunch dose tomorrow!
