Group 7-day waking average?

@Bloden sorry I though I'd replied to you yesterday! I haven't spoken to the GP yet, I don't really want to as there isn't much they could do apart from medication at the moment and that's usually the form of antidepressants for OCD which I don't want to take xx
 
3.8 for me this morning. I woke at 6.20am feeling a bit hot and bothered and it was 4.3 so had a small carb snack and went back to sleep.... after another late night. Libre alarm woke me at 7.30am and I was 4.7 but still too bleary eyed to get up and when I did, my BG had dropped again. Didn't use a hypo treatment because DP was about to kick in. It is climbing a little more slowly than usual this morning despite not taking any bolus insulin to counteract it but I am mid 4s now and don't want to upset the equilibrium by eating something just yet. Will probably just have a substantial early lunch today.

It is hot out there already!
Have a good day folks!
 
Good day folks the big D is on one today 10.8🙄.

Hellp people

5.1 today

Glad to report, feeling heaps better.
A cracking day here.
Stay safe everyone
 
A few much higher waking levels presently so a 7.4 this morning. Just out of hospital after an emergency admission and it was hot as hell in there as they have air con units covered to stop Coronavirus spread.
my illness wasn’t remotely Covid related however (or diabetes) and I’ve tested Covid negative. It’s a pretty nasty little test, much more invasive into the throat and nostrils than I anticipated. I’m totally black with bruises from endless blood lets and cannula!
Just recovering in this punishing heat but relieved to be out during this heatwave. The poor doctors and nurses etc. in those masks. I had 6 hrs in an A&E room with one on and it was oppressive! They really are heroes and cared for me well.

@KARNAK you wouldn’t seriously! I have been misbehaving during lockdown - well a few treats were necessary to sustain me! However, back on the programme now by cutting out breakfast to get my appetite under control. 8.1 fasting this am
 
@Amigo oh no that sounds awful, hope your on the mend, take care xx
 
Thanks Kaylz.

Blood sugars don’t much like what’s been going on so trying to stabilise them again :(
7.4 isn't bad at all given what's going on so go easy on yourself my lovely xx
 
Hi @Sally W both sides will do, front side and backside.😳

Misbehave all you like, help is available, not another flipping oops?😳😳😳
Stay safe Young Lady:D xx
 
I've had a whole jar of green olives and a rum and coke! Olives would probably have gone better with a G&T but I ate them first so rum and coke tasted very sweet afterwards!
Maybe we should start a naughtiness thread??

Needed the rum after someone's dog came into my garden chasing my chickens because they didn't have it on a lead. Arrgh!
 
It’s 4.12am and been up for an hour, woken by doggy panting and shaking, and within minutes mahoosive thunder and lightening storm. It is 27.6 downstairs and hotter upstairs, unbearable, imagine having to wear a fur coat as well aargh. Just thought I’d share this bit of necessary information with you as I’m very bored!!!
 
Morning All,

Weather funny here as well warm and I;'m sure the odd rumble of thunder

reading for me again a bit high for me at 9.0 not sure why nothing different been eaten
 
5.1 this morning for me. And waking to the sound of rain.
Neighbours had warned me that they were going to have a party last Friday but it didn’t happen. Seems like it’s set for tonight as yesterday a massive gazebo went up in their garden and they installed a sound system and a bbq large enough for a hog roast. I’m curious to see their take on social distancing.
 
Morning all,
A Heinz day for me at 5.7 🙂
Lots of rain early on this morning but we had an inconsiderate person letting off fireworks last night at 10:30 ish... why?
Anyhoo might venture out this morning for a bit of 'cool running' with the big news being an appointment with the fish n chip shop later and sharing with a friend!
Oh and it was 114 degrees in our summerhouse yesterday... phew!
Blessings Snowwy
 
Morning all, 4.7 here. Spent yesterday craving sweet things (had a couple of those little Lotus biscuits, and kept raiding the fridge for strawberries and bits of nectarine), and had a rice salad in the evening. BG never budged above about 7. Was convinced my Libre had gone wrong at one point, my trace was so flat. (Meter confirmed it was correct). That’s the effect of a heatwave, super efficient insulin absorption!
