Group 7-day waking average?

Good morning pals🙂

I woke up with 4.9, and a message from my sensor that it’s leaving me in two days.

Is it just me? I always used to change my sensors on a Tuesday. It’s gradually worked backwards, so I don’t think they last 14 days, it’s 13 days and about 5/6th. And how come they never run out during the night?

Anyway, today it’s raining, for a change. Never mind, it’s only weather. Apparently there’s a weather warning for wind tomorrow, possible danger to life. I suppose it is if your house is made of straw. Still, if you live in Scotland that’s all your leccie sorted from wind farms. It’s an ill wind...🙂

Have a good day everyone, and if you drive for Eddie Stobart, make sure you’re on the South England run tomorrow:confused::D
 
Woke on a 6.3 which is surprising as I have a major lergy attack with upper respiratory infection. Glad the weather has been as bleak as me so I could stay under the duvet! 😳
 
Good morning 7.8 on another miserable day :(. Washing all done and dried, time for my walk in a bit. Broadband will be off tomorrow, upgrading to Fibre. 🙂.

Hope you feel better soon @Amigo, the Like is for your BGL 🙂.

Have a good day all.

Morning campers, 4.5 for me. Still feel rough and have sore throat from hell. Currently scalding the beast with a mug of tea, then I’m going back to bed.
I hope your feel better soon and your throat eases up today. It’s horrible to doubt I’ve often found gargling with salt helps. I believe you can get sugar free Strepcils (sp?) too .
 
Good morning folks. Have a good day.

I forgot to test when I woke up, pre bolus number is 7.8, my Libre suggested an extra 4 units correction 😱😱 which I totally ignored as I think it’s having a funny turn, so when my brain has been revived by coffee I’m off into the Libre settings to calm it down. :D
 
Morning all.🙂 3.7 here - should’ve had that JB at 5 am.🙄

It’s NOT RAINING at the mo!!!! 😛 I just hope it lasts...off to a Christmas market on the sea front later, so I just hope the wind and rain don’t return as promised. Soggy Santa’s Windy Grotto isn’t going to attract the crowds.😱🙄

16.6 for me this morning. Have a good day all
 
Good morning folks🙂

I had a nice straight line overnight in range, but the effort of getting out of bed shoved me up to 9.5. I’m sure this is a seasonal thing, just need to up my evening Levemir a tad.🙄

Weather warning for a bit of a breeze today. Oh, well, I’ll save scooter battery, getting blown down into the village. Need to get prescriptions and HP sauce.

Need a new sensor in four hours as well. Good job, the old one is starting to itch.:confused:

Well, life could be worse, I could have been on O2.:D

Have a good day everyone, the weekend starts here🙂
 
Good morning 6.9 with clear skies 🙂. BT engineer was here at 07:30 to upgrade the broadband to Fibre, all done in a couple of hours 🙂. Neurology rang they need more blood so off to Doc`s in a minute 🙄.

Enjoy your day everyone.
 
Have just struggled out of bed after coughing all night like a broken winded horse! My liver obviously got up earlier however and started pushing out glucose to try and get me up so I awoke on a 7.4.

Big, big issue in that I’m scheduled for the cataract op Monday morning and coughing and scalpels are not a great combination. As I need to be op free for at least a month before my cancer treatment starts I now haven’t the time to reschedule. Once it starts I can’t have surgery for a considerable period of time.

So what to do? Answers on a postcard please 🙄

What kind of cough is it? If it’s just an irritated one I’d personally take a cough suppressant and keep my fingers crossed. But I don’t know your background, so might be best to confess and ask their opinion.

Thanks. Yes I’ve consulted them and I’m waiting to see how I am on the morning. It’s a deep, chain cough and I’m on antibiotics. Fingers crossed.
