@Wurst are you OK that's a little on the low side isn't it.

Fine thanks for asking @JohnEGreen . I skipped my morning bolus injection before my cycle into work and was @ 5.0 when I next checked. Rotated my basal inject site last night so it looks like a better absorption rate :-0

Yes, you should test immediately on getting up. Taking a shower or any other activity will make your BG go up. :)
Really? I didn't know that. So when I get up and walk my dog it causes my bg to go up before I test. I thought that activity brought it down. Will try tomorrow and see before I go out for a walk ... do you know why?
