Hi Omar51

Agreed, but I suppose it depends on the purpose of your FBG records. Testing as we wake is the simplest way to ensure the conditions pre check are as close to identical as humanly possible. The results then provide a useful benchmark for day to day comparison.

Our results if checking some time later will depend on what we were up to between getting out of bed and logging our FBG. When attempting a day to day comparison, we could be comparing apples and pears.

Hi lívingLighty
Thanks for the reply. I am pre for about 14 years. I have been through lots of ups and downs. My numbers are in the non diabetic range including A1c. I don’t take any medication. I regularly see my PCP, Nephrologist and diabetes dietitian.

Lately I am following a certain routine, it seems like it’s working for me. I also do a lot of testing pre and 2 hours after the meals. I log every meal. Thanks for the useful info.

6.5 at 7:45 Took half a nytol again.
I’m getting to the point where I’m anxious about going to bed just in case I can’t get to sleep, which is stopping going to sleep, how absurd is that! :rolleyes:

Have a lovely Thursday everyone and keep smiling x
