Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning all.🙂

I woke with a more sensible 7.1 today.🙂

Lovely morning, not a cloud in the sky. Bit of a struggle getting out of bed, mind, my left leg was fixed at a right angle, so it was an effort getting both feet on the floor before take off.:confused:

Must be all that celebrating at Ewood Park on Saturday🙄
 
Good morning 3.6 after a few days A.W.O.L. Flu bug got a real grip of me, BGL in the mid teens for the last four days. Feel better today suns shining as it has all weekend catching up with last weeks posts, so to all going on holiday enjoy yourselves, to those having appointments or treatment good luck and best wishes, everyone else enjoy your day.

Take care you`ve been missed.
 
Sorry MIA over the weekend due to granddaughters 6th birthday party and all it preparations. Anyway 8.6 this morning, not too bad considering what I ate at 6th birthday party.
Funnily enough it’s my granddaughter’s 6th birthday today and she had a party yesterday and I am certainly not declaring what I ate! 😉
 
Morning all, beautiful cool and sunny day. All the sevens for me today, 7.7. Could have been the Blue Riband I ate at 2.30am! 😳 Had a sleepless night, things to do, ( packing) people to see ( osteopath) mind whirring. Roll on bedtime...oh just remembered no bedtime tonight, up at 2am to catch flight. Ah well, sure it’ll be worth it when we land, temperatures in the mid 20s forecast. Have told kids they aren’t allowed to take their iPads so I am not taking mine, so this is adios ( but not goodbye) for a week. Have a great week everyone, @AJLang hope all goes well at eye hospital, @Carolg hope all goes well at diabetes nurse appointment, don’t hold your breath for a c peptide test, they have always refused me giving various excuses, but stand your ground on a better treatment ie insulin. 😎
Have a lovely holiday eggyg.

Just an update- fife don’t offer c peptide test, so no joy. Pioglitazone stopped, gliclazide 40 mg started from tomorrow. 2 week follow up phone call. To test twice a day, pre brekkie and pre tea, then twice a day before other meals. Just as well I have my own monitor and strips as none offered, mind you I never asked.

Here is hoping for results

If you drive they should have given you strips to test before driving as Glicliazide can cause hypos.
 
Hi grovesey. Yes I drive and nurse knows I self test and self fund. Will get in touch with her
 
Good morning everyone. 12.2 today. Off to ear consultant this morning for follow up appointment about my Menieres disease.
 
Morning all. 5.0 today on the road.
 
17.7 for me, and new pills started here’s hoping for good results.
Have a good day all
 
Morning all, 7.3 here. I blame the windfall apples I was stewing for the freezer last night, not all the bits ended up in the pan.
I have a big pot full to peel, stew and freeze. Hopefully do it tonight
 
Good morning lads and lassies🙂

I woke with 8.0. That’ll do, I’ve got a stressful morning. I’m off for my first English neurology appointment at 11.30. That’s not the stressful bit, it’s waiting for the hospital transport. I’m sure it will turn up, but it’s a hangover from my time in Scotland, when ferries and things were involved.

With a bit of luck there might be a couple of students there, I can have a bit of fun as they try to elicit non existent reflexes. I’ll probably end up with bruised legs and feet as they try harder and harder:D

I probably won’t have any answers, but I’ll try and elicit some impressions. There’s only two choices anyway. Ahead lies EMGs, lumbar puncture, and head to sternum MRI. Being an expert sleeper, I’ve slept through both MRI and lumbar puncture.🙂
 
Good morning a whopping 13.3 :(. Went to bed with 9.2, I thought that would come down nicely through the night but not a chance. A day of fasting for me and check BGL every two hours.

Good luck @mikeyB With your neurology appointment 🙂.

Have a good day folks.
 
Good morning. 16.6 for me but on good side only up once through the night for usual. Have a good day all
