Thanks for your reply @PenguinMum. Unfortunately, coping with stress for several hours plays old harry with our BG levels and stress hormones, as you realise. The best antidote is to go for a walk and let off steam, but exercise of any sort is impossible when you're stuck in traffic!

No luck with diabetic nurse.If my morning number goes above 10 she will reconsider Linagliptin!DONT take post meal readings.

 

[ravensmitten]

9.5 until I had a piece of cheese which brought it back down to 5.5

highest I've seen it for ages, completely forgot my tablets yesterday though so might be why.

also haven't been as strict as I usually am on the carbs recently, but post meal readings still have been in range.

 

[Lainie71]

6.5 this morning, now lunchtime and no appetite, bg will rise if I don't have a snack and I will start to get a headache

 

[Ryhia]

[DEBBIESCOTT]

Morning all

Wednesday, 4.7 mmol on waking at 6.00 am.
Take care everyone and stay safe.

 

[flonvic]

8.0 for me today.

 

[Lainie71]

7.5 this morning and 4.5 at lunchtime yesterday. Off for a workout

 

[Omar51]

Wednesday morning 4.61 Seems like my meter calls for more carbs, since my FBG is stable, I am not adding more carbs to my diet. Weight is stable and metabolism is good. Drinking 4 glasses of water helps lower BG. Have a nice day everyone!

 

[RosemaryJackson]

Morning all. 7.0 today. Have started drinking more water. Have a nice day all.

 

[PenguinMum]

Morning All so down to 7.5 what a state of affairs! Anyway planning a careful day then we are away tomo for long weekend in Bath, one of our favourite cities anywhere. Take care everybody and keep trying (esp @flonvic sending hugs).
Good to see you back @Omar51 the most consistent member of the thread. Happy Wednesday.
