cheers I'll just do that then, at least then I shouldn't get caught short if I get another bad apple lol, hate that its thrown my switch day though, Bruce has never witnessed it as he's always been at work as its a Monday so he was quite intrigued as he's off when I was due to change it! lol xx

I've just sparked up my new one and the reading is 2.2 mmol/l lower than a blood test - hoping it will improve as it settles in more otherwise I'm going to have an awful lot of 'hypos' 😱

fingers crossed for you, my faulty one was at its least 2.6mmol out but mostly over 3mmol, I wore it till this morning so here's how I've supposedly been so shouldn't be here telling the story!
Just done dinner and only 0.9mmol higher than finger prick so here's hoping and fingers crossed for a good un!

Reporting a reading of 8.2 for this morning - was hoping to continue my decreasing trend but maybe my liver realised it was Friday and trickled out a bit more glucose in anticipation and excitement..
Morning all on this momentous occasion. I’m in the fives! 5.7! It’s just like the old days. Hope it’s not a fluke. I was 7.2 at bedtime, had a hand full of nuts ( never had protein before bed but @Robin does that, so I copied her) injected in stomach again instead of thigh and ......voila! I’m a happy bunny, pity that’ll be spoiled in an hour when the three remaining grandchildren arrive, already have one here! Only joking, they’re the light in my dark, the cream in my coffee and a pain in my ****! Have a fabulous day everyone, the weekend starts here.
6.3 for me this morning, sensor reading about 1mmol higher than prick
Todays a tough day for me and even tougher as it's the first year I've had to spend it without Bruce as it's 9 years since our miscarriage so think I'll just go and spend some time cuddled with Bubbles today
Morning all, 5.7 here.
Maybe your higher waking numbers were due to an overnight low and consequent rebound then, @eggyg. (Time will tell if it was just a fluke, though!)
Battening down the hatches and staying put for the weekend. There's Wilderness festival going on just down the road, and Countryflie Live at Blenheim Palace. The dates clashed last year, and there was traffic chaos. So they brightly thought having them on the same weekend would be a good idea this year too.

Hmmm just checked my UPS tracking and it says its in Dundee but still saying Monday yet had a text off my dad saying its out for delivery and I'll get it in the afternoon! Not sure if he's doing my area today but he did ask if I'd be in or if it would be my mum (they haven't spoken for years) so might be lol xx
