Group 7-day waking average?

help help help I daren't measure! 😱

Daughter got her letter from the hospital (cardio) not great news and we both went into denial and into the nearest chippy and offy for goodies. :(
 
I'll drink lots...dunno about the exercise, I'm knackered after getting Mum to Specsavers! :D
 
Morning all. An unexpected 6.8 this morning after unexplained high readings all day yesterday and went to bed on 10.2 after half a portion of fish and chips, neither of us had the inclination to cook. Started with the chesty cough yesterday, so was up and down all night. Find I sleep better on the sofa propped up. Hope the dreaded pleurisy isn’t on it’s way, had it twice in the last few years but weirdly don’t generally have a cough and cold first. I’m blaming global warming, no crisp, cold weather to kill the bugs. I’m sounding like my mother now! Hope your day goes well. 🙂
 
Good morning from frosty Leven. 7.1 for me.

{hugs}@ditto
Good luck at review @Docb
Well done @Northerner
Hope you feel better soon @eggyg
Everyone else, have a good day- stay well & warm
 
Good morning, it's a new week 5.1 for me 🙂

Off early doors to the foot clinic- please let nothing have deteriorated any further.

Have a good stable bg Monday everyone 🙂
Fingers crossed for you.
 
Docb. Good luck with your review.
 
6.7. My lowest morning reading yet.
 
Docb. Good luck with your review.
Thanks Ljc. Just back. GP, who has the makings of a good doctor, realises that somebody like me is a bit outside her experience to date and happily says she is learning things about diabetes from our consultations.. Happily accepted that a c-peptide check amongst others was a good move to make sure that T2 diabetes is the best way of characterising what is going on. Thanks again to all on here who have got me up to speed so quickly that I can go into the GP and have a sensible discussion about where I am at and more importantly, how to get the information to see where I might be going.
 
Good morning all🙂

Hate to spoil the party, but woke up on 2.8 this morning. Probably due to a slight overdose of insulin covering a post meal choccie Magnum. Confused by summer eating in February.:D

That’s all put right now. I’m off to do a bit of urgent shopping. Mrs B has run out of Tomato Juice. Better check the Lea&Perrins status, too, she’s addicted to that. 🙄

Good British brand, L&Ps Worcestershire Sauce. Not. It’s owned by Kraft Heinz, who are in financial trouble currently in the US. That’s less of a worry than HP sauce, which is now made in Holland, part of the Danone empire. Have the government planned to stockpile supplies? We need to be told😡

And before any discussion of HP Sauce starts, that’s just personal taste. And my opinion that people who put tomato ketchup on a sausage butty should be shot is just a personal opinion too.:D

Have a good day, everyone. Make the most of it, weather gets back to normal at the weekend🙂
 
11:05 BS 8.6.🙄 Swings & roundabouts or is that snakes & ladders? My Waking BS has been erratic! First signs of slightly LESS pain when putting up my hair yesterday & I painfully grunted through even more physio exercises: that little sign spurring me on!🙂

Another storm free night & it’s lovely bright sunshine today!🙂 Spring really is on the way!😉 Slept a lot better after all that pyshio & it’s more or less time for my midday Levemir & meds. Have a Sainsbury’s delivery from 12-1pm. So, will wait for that before I have lunch!

Have a wonderful day everyone full of bright, bright sunshine; inside & out!😉:D😎
 
I am sorry to hear your daughter got bad news, please send her my best wishes {{{HUGS}}}
I will do Northie. She's being as stupid as me, the things we were eating yesterday! 😱 Shameful.

8.8 this morning, not too bad, but I wonder what that came down from? :(
