Group 7-day waking average?

I’ve wondered what a HS was for a while now. Why 5.2? What makes it a house special?

I think its as its considered to be a perfect number to wake on as it allows room in both directions or something along those lines anyway xx
 
04:38 BS 6.7. Umm! Ok ish! 🙄 Still a bit laboured breathing wise but, a slight improvement & I’ll take my inhalers again as soon as I’ve posted. It’s definitely freezing cold this morning during trip to little girl’s room for usual call & wash hands for test! Shivering, covered in icicles emoji! 😱 Aww! Summer really does seem to be gone already! 😱

A very early Good Morning to you all & have a Wonderful Day! 🙂 Keep warm today! 🙄

Right, I’m off to have gyoza pork dumplings for breakfast: I feel like some; freezer has improved a lot now that my kitchen is a LOT cooler! The kitchen, after the conservatory, was the hottest room in the house because of the direct sunlight & only a kitchen blind on the window! Only realised it when I was in there a bit longer than usual waiting, & watching video on iPad while doing so, for something in the oven & it was roasting in there during the humid, muggy days of late. No wonder the poor fridge freezer was struggling! 😱🙄 Things are hardening & refreezing again but, that thawing can’t be good so, I’ve nearly eaten everything in it & replenished some things on Monday. I can finally confidently pick up my insulin I ordered that’s been sitting at the chemist for over a week! Or TBH, have them deliver it to me! 🙄😳
 
Good morning 🙂 5.1 for me today - should have raised my head ever so slightly and I would probably have got a House Special! 🙄 🙂 Pleased to report that things went well at the Eye Clinic yesterday - DMO is stable, in fact there was a slight reduction in the numbers (400 is the tipping point for needing the injections, mine was 348. Last time it was about 360, and in January it was 380, so heading in the right direction 🙂 )
 
Morning Folks,

Reporting a reading of 10.2 this morning , high but an improvement on yesterday.
 
Morning all, it’s wet again! But never mind that. The results are in for my first 21 hours of the Libre. I woke at 4 did a zap whilst lying prone 4.9, went to loo, slept til 7, another prone zap, 6.1 and an upwards rise. Got up, loo, downstairs, 6.4! So my theory about DP was correct. Not quite a flat fish but I stayed in range all night. 5 to 7.9 is my idea range. Should I reduce my basal?
 
Good morning, 6.7 this morning, not much else to say.

Nah I would leave it, those numbers look good to me, plus they are in your range so why worry.

I'd gather a bit more data first 🙂 Also, have you done any fingerpricks to see how close the readings are? 🙂
 
Morning all, 3.8 here! Too much gardening yesterday, I pruned all my espalier apple trees (that sounds like we’ve got a whole estate full. It’s only a line of four, that divides the veg plot from the bit with flowers in, but working at full stretch with the long handled loppers takes effort!). Sounds of heavy rain outside, so no gardening today.
 
Good morning folks 🙂

It's a 5.9 from a rather chilly Brechin this morning, sure it isn't that cold but sure feels it after the recent temperatures lol

Only about 26 hours left on current sensor and praying the next one is just as good as keep shaking with this cold thing I've got and feels similar to hypo shakes so this sensor has had a lot of use and saved my fingers a lot of battering!

Have a great day my lovelies! :D
xx
 
6.3 for me. Wet and mis here too (the weather of course not me) 😛
 
Patiently waited for ages, it seems since I got up SO early, till 9am. to call my chemist to deliver my prescription! Oh dear! It’s been 2 weeks the insulin & prescription has been sitting there: lost track of time; had my last pills yesterday so, it’s about right! I usually order with 1 week of meds to go. They’ll get it to me in the next hour or so & it’ll be in time for my midday meds! I had been so worried about the fridge freezer but, it’s back on track now with the kitchen temperatures back down. Must note to keep kitchen window open during hot days in the summer! 😱🙄

Can't believe what I saw when I opened the curtains this morning. What a thoroughly miserable morning - overcast, gloomy and wet. Checked my calendar - yes, it's still August.

5.3 for me. At least that's brightened things up a bit.
