Group 7-day waking average?

9.3 today. Cold here today. Have a nice day everyone
 
Morning all. A 9.5 for me today. Off to have blood taken this morning ready to see what's happening with my HbA1c and everything else they check.
Good luck at the vampires today.
 
Good morning everyone . Hope you all have a good day
6.6 on the finger
According to the Libre I spent most of the night in the red zone and woke on 4.2 , what a little fibber it is today.

This silly gal didn’t notice she had forgotten to order some needles with my last meds order . (Thank heaven for online ordering) I’ve got enough to see me through till Wednesday so I am nit desperate but I hate getting that low esp as I am finding more blocked needles than usual with this batch, had three yesterday.
 
5.4 this cold and frosty morning. Piling on the thermals to meet the farrier and ply him with hot tea.
Keep warm everyone xx
 
Morning all. 6.3 here today and hoping for a steadier day. Huge amounts of basal testing required but too tired to do it at the moment.

Have a great day all
 
Good morning, 6.8 today 🙂

I'll join you @grainger in hoping for a steadier today after 2 crashing hypos yesterday and the resultant blood glucose trek up Everest and back. My resolution not to swear as much has well and truly gone out of the window 😳🙄

Enjoy your day - I think it's a Friday? Lost track after Christmas and New Year 😉🙂
 
Hi all, been MIA the last couple of days. The lurgy has almost left the room, thank goodness. A 5.5 this morning, lowest for a while. Going to venture into the town today, need some supplies for our re organised New Year party on Sunday and may have a look in the remnants of the sales. Have a fantastic Friday. 🙂
 
Morning all, a 6.7 today following an 8 before bed last night...the result of the biccies I couldn't resist plus panettone and suchlike. We have an Epiphany service & party at church on Sunday (Twelfth Night) so hopefully after that I can get back to normality. And I haven't been able to exercise cos I hurt my knees slipping and falling down the stairs in the tube station before Christmas. And it was my dodgy knee came off worst too...:(
 
Good morning everyone🙂

Had a lie in this morning. Woke in the night with a 2.3:confused: Woke this morning with 9.2, but I think that is the DP, rather than overcorrection. Not that bothered, to be honest.🙄

Anyway, it’s my birthday today, and the lift engineers are still working on the lift to get it working. If they can’t manage it, I can’t go out for my birthday tea with the family. After I’ve posted this, I may go out and tell them that, just to make them feel horrible.😎:D

The lie in was because I stayed up late to watch Casablanca on Sky Movies Greats. I love that film, it’s perfect. Fantastic story, brilliant acting and crackling dialogue, and all brought in in around 98 minutes. A masterpiece.

Here’s looking at you, kids🙂

Forgot to post this earlier. 12:04 BS 10.7. Still woke with a headache: 4th. morning in a row! Got up too late to see GP today so, will have to do it on Mobday! I wondered if it was high blood pressure as twice I had constant headaches, so constant I stopped noticing, the first time when I was put on meds for it & the second time when I needed to increase those meds!🙄 Checked my blood pressure & it was a normal range 124/72. Last checked Boxing Day 117/52 in the optimal range where I usually am. So only a bit higher than usual.🙄

Had 14 units Novorapid & breakfast. After, just now 14:02, BS 9.1.🙂

It’s actually been a bit warmer here the last few days & it’s mild today as well! Having some winter sun in the conservatory today & cooked a ton of food in insulated bento boxes in a vacum flask, 1.5l bottle of water & glass, kindle, iPhone, heater & blankets for a relaxing day!🙂 I have enough food & water to last me the whole day & kept warm for about 8 hours!😛

I wish you all a wonderful day & the weekend’s not far off!:D😎
 
05:14 BS 6.9. My headache never went away yesterday & it was in the background the whole day! It started to get more painful in the evening & I took 2x500mg paracetamol tablets at 6pm. Didn’t make a difference! It was a constant ache that grew sharp when trying to concentrate or think! But, if I distracted myself, by watching tv, cooking etc. I wouldn’t notice! Then, I went to bed & couldn’t sleep! I just dozed lightly for about 2 hours & gave up: too painful! I called Doctor on Call at about 04:45 & have an appointment to see a doctor at 09:20 at the hospital in the morning & to call 999 if symtoms worsen before then! There are no doctors available until the morning!
 
Hope you get some answers Lanny and feel better
 
10.3 for me after munchies last night and a hypo at lunch time(BG 2.9). Had walked to shops and a later lunch.
Have a good day all
