Group 7-day waking average?

Morning all and 5.9 for me .

Creon supplies replenished. I was so relieved I treated myself to a new Lancet and it's only April.

Gardening beckons before it gets too warm.

Have a good day everyone.
 
Good morning.. I trust you are all enjoying this lovely warm weather , I am my Asthma isn’t though but it can just go take a running jump :D .
Woke up to a not unexpected 7.2 on a blood letting and 7.8 scan looks like this new sensor might just be a gud un.
Hope you all have @ good day
 
Morning all, 4.8 at 7am, but I went back to sleep, and was 6.2 an hour and a half later.
Had a good hack out over the meadows yesterday, one hairy moment on the one bit of quiet road we have to do on the way. An incredibly loud motor bike roared up right behind us at speed (one of those old fashioned Easy Rider styles with the rider almost lying down, and high handlebars) and all three horses spooked in every direction. Motorbike rider looked a bit sheepish, pulled back and let us regroup, then passed us very carefully and rode away slowly. Lesson leant, I hope.
 
Morning all on yet another gorgeous morning, I dusted off my shorts yesterday, in the privacy of my own garden of course! Think I may have given my neighbours a shock though! Went to bed on 7.2, had an extra unit again, I set my alarm for 3 to test, woke just after 2 so I did it then, 7.3, then again at 5.55am, 6.9! 7.4 when I got up at 8. Chucked out the current Levemir cartridge and opened a new box, let’s see what happens. Thinking my little scrappy bit of remaining pancreas is totally knackered! Have a great day, we have the hordes coming for Easter Sunday dinner, just 13 today! 😱
 
Good morning everyone. A nice 5.2 after correcting an 8.0 at 5am. I’m rather stressed today because my Dad is coming round. He announced on Thursday that he was staying in the town this weekend and will be only the second time I’ve seen him in over a year - totally his choice. His visit has brought back a lot of bad emotions and a lot of tears last night. Anyhow trying to stay positive Mark helped me to make Dad a Victoria sandwich, we’ve also bought him an Easter egg and a large bottle of Whiskey. Please wish me well, the visit will either go very well or end in tears...although my brother seems to get the short end of the straw with being more gullible when Dad purposely tries to upset him and then tells me about it! UPDATE Dad stayed here just over three hours and it mainly went ok. He didn’t want to see me any more than that even though he is now staying in town for four days and isn’t seeing anyone else today and tomorrow. However he is going to the casino every night, a race meeting yesterday and bookies today (and probably tomorrow). Oh well at least he only raised his voice to me once.

Well unsurprisingly having not had meds for 24 hours, and eaten exactly the same as yesterday, my BGs are showing an identical rise pattern. So the meds aren’t actually doing anything anyway.
 
Hello all, my bs was 8.7 this morning :D. Hope you've all enjoyed another wonderful day.
 
Hi everybody🙂

Very late reporting, but not for any other reason than I’ve been very busy (by my standards). Woke up on 6.2 after a suitably straight line. I’m on my last sensor, so I’d better order resupply tomorrow, assuming that Abbott work Bank Holidays.

That’s if I don’t have a long lie in, because Rovers are playing already relegated Bolton, so a vaguely local derby. That’s if their players have been paid, Bolton are in a bit of a financial mess currently. Sad.

Anyway, the weather should be lovely, though the wheelchair gang at Ewood are on the wrong side to soak up the sun. The warm weather has brought my Pomegranate bush on the balcony back to life. A good summer should bring a bit of fruit. Love Pomegranate, it doesn’t really bump up my BG - must be all the seeds. Used to love a Tequila Sunrise, as well:D

Hope everyone has had a good day. I may not have time to log in tomorrow, and maybe not Tuesday because that’s the day I go to the neurologist, presumably for an opinion on diagnosis, or another MRI to confirm a possible diagnosis. Might find out how long I’ll be annoying folk on here, too.🙄

Probably see you Wednesday, then. Behave yourselves.🙂
 
Hi folks, been awol for a couple of days, the weather is so good we have been travelling around Torbay.🙂 8.2 this morning and 6.4 2 hours later, been quite low all day, 2.8 an hour ago even after dinner. No bolus normal basal,🙄 hope tomorrow is another great day, beach is still very busy mostly English Language students partying.😎

Take care folks sleep well.🙂
 
04:13 BS 4.2. Not waking as I got up after midnight alarm for Levemir & stayed up to watch the 2nd. episode of GOT. Just about to have breakfast before going to bed!🙄 Still no spoilers! 😉

An early good morning to you all on this Easter Monday!😉
 
I hope all goes well @mikeyB and that you will be annoying us for decades.
 
Good morning folks . 7.0 this morning with a horrible overnight graph, went to bed on 9.0 , I couldn’t get below that yesterday even after increasing bolus, had a lightbulb moment this morning and changed cartridges.
Will give my usual ratio for brekkie and see what happens.

I hope you all have a good day and can take advantage of this nice weather, if you have to go to work
(((Hug))).
