Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all, 9.3 for me today. Have my retinopathy appointment this afternoon. Will it be 4 years in a row without needing the eye drops???

Morning all and a 7.2 for me. It rather looks like 1 oatcake post hypo would have been sufficient.

Have a good day everyone.

I feel as if there is a beast inside me when I have a hypo and can’t get enough food in quick enough so will have to learn patience to prevent over treating

Oh, I remember that feeling @Carolg!🙄 You’ll get to grips with it, don’t worry. Have you worked out why you’re having so many hypos lately?

Morning folks.🙂 3.9 here. Fed up with theses random hypos now...kick the fairy over my way, Northerner...on the ‘ead son, on the ‘ead.:confused:

Hi Bloden . New to this insulin lark, just low dose. Decreased morning dose twice. I think I haven’t got to grips with morning snack as it’s settling down to pre lunch time hypo. Maybe will start putting out a few crackers beside coffee cup to have about 11.00 or any suggestions welcome thanks. Also started a food diary again, as I probably am seeing dietitian in February
 
Morning all. 9.5 here!😱 I think it may have something to do with forgetting last night's basal. Proves I do need those 2.5 units!
The full moon was taunting me through the bathroom window this morning. why couldn’t it have shown itself yesterday for the eclipse!
 
07:30 BS 5.1.🙂 About the same! Yesterday’s s highest BS was 7.8.🙂

Oooh!😱 Almost froze my toeies off going to the bathroom this morning!:( Actually, felt a bit cold while I was sleeping; aware of it but, not enough to wake me! Just sitting in bed with the electric heater turned up!🙄 Not quite up for breakfast yet so, had half oatcake & half dose Novorapid, 6 units.

Went out yesterday morning & there was a touch of ice on the pavements in the town centre so, didn’t hang around too long! I’ll say there’s a bit thicker layer of ice this morning!o_O

Got a bit of a shock in the post yesterday with a massive electrics bill, more than 3 times my usual, & had to go out into the garage to take a photo of the meter, as per instructions! Rang Power NI & gave them the meter reading. The person who calculated the bill was off that day so, she’ll call me back when she’s back. Was given an email address to send in the photo. Bill will be recalculated!😱🙄:( The Finnaces fairy, if there’s such a thing, is having a right laugh: gives on the one hand; takes with the other!:confused:🙄

It’s cold out there so, wrap up warm & I wish you all some sunshine on the inside to warm you up!:D Good morning everyone!😉
 
Good morning folks🙂

Bit of a lie in this morning, woke on 8.1. Straight line overnight, lifting from a bedtime 6.1. Nearly right.🙄

It’s good having the lift back in action, as you can imagine. Collected my own paper this morning. Now looking for an excuse to go out on the mighty scooter.😎

Of course, it’s a bit too cold for joyriding. I might just go up to the local shop to pay the newspaper bill, if I can tear myself away from the World Bowls Championship.:confused:

Never mind, there’s the first Test Match against the West Indies starting tomorrow afternoon. Let it snow...

Have a good day everyone, don’t do anything I wouldn’t do, but if you do, don’t get arrested🙂
 
Yeah snow, but it didn't stick. Still cold though. 🙂

Fell off the wagon big time, really stupid, expecting double figures this morning but 7.5 @ 7.09am. Maybe I went very high and then plummeted? This is what I always think. I should just take the reading at the time but I'm too much of a coward, I don't want to know.

Yesterday was 7.5 @ 7.09am after a really carby evening. 😱 Liked being in the 6s better.

7.0 the day before.
 
Good morning now evening, 5.4, was absent yesterday got called to hospital to have a check on my right foot.🙄 Checked BP in both big toes, ankle left one only right one badly swollen due to fracture in foot. They want me to go on statins as cholesterol is 6.3, that was this morning afraid Ted is not doing very well at the moment have to go back on the 28th for more treatment but struggling at the moment, just feel like c**p. Hope you are all coping as best as you can, take care all.

Morning all, 12.4 for me which is OK considering 4 weeks of non-stop steroids.
Choosing life again after the anti-coagulant wobble and have some fun things planned for the next week involving husband, kids, horses and ice hockey.
Hope you all have a great day xx
