I am sharing with you my observation that sleeping hours and duration has certain influence on morning/fasting sugar level. Last night being a weekend evening I had a party and had late dinner at 2200 and had rich meal (chicken biriany , white rice ,some potatoes... all full of carbs ). Had some fruits( mango, orange, papaya, coconut) and tea couple of cups afterwords .For some reasons ,it was almost early morning at 5-30 when I went to bed . Before bed , I checked the reading and I was surprised to see it normal 6.7 after taking heavy/ rich dinner with fruits etc few hours ago. Anyway, woke up at 1030 (after a sleep of 5 hours only)and checked the reading and found this elevated (7.6) than the one before bed increase by 0.9 . I could not understand the logic behind it. Thought that the effect of heavy /rich dinner was already stabilized before bedtime reading and because I did not eat anything and had rest/sleep I did not expect any rise in sugar level . I think, this was because of irregular timing of sleep as well as insufficient hours .Can you forum members say anything on my observation and conclusion? Did anybody experience similar blood sugar readings fluctuations?
