@phonic2k Thanks. I just wish I could wake up every day at 3.9 before the DP. I can live with it jumping to low or mid 5, stabilising and then gradually lowering throughout the day.It will go up as the body trys to finds ways to make more glucose to keep you alive. Moving your hands, walking, even your brain needs glucose too.
With me I know if it's 3.9 it will jump up, and within minutes it will be 4.8, nothing wrong with that. Just my body doing its job to keep me alive. I would only be concerned if it keeps going up and does not settle.
By the way stress hormones and insulin resistance are higher in the mornings, this will also effect your blood.
I have had the same as I got 42 in Jan , referred to the clinician , told next test after 1yr , to eat less fruit , 42 = 6 , I'm getting 6.9 , 6.4 in morning (1 7.9 day after binge ) . There is something called 'Liver Dump' , put a search in on here , it explains it all . Good luck Alison . ~ Pre Diet6.7, 6.6, 6.7, and 6.7 beginning to think there was an error with my HBA1C at 40 in Dec
You may notice it will go higher with oats as it's slow release, I would test again later.
Count your carbs. one pear can have from 17-25 net carbs, you had about 44g carbs if not more. I would do some pre-breakfast exercise or cut the carbs if you want lower readings, but a cold will not help too, and when you're ill, you may want to help your body by eating lower GI food, exercising(if possible) and cut the amount of net carbs per meal.[/QUOTE
Thanks Phonic2K
Pre breakfast workout is on the cards now, the post breakfast test was 5.7 , managed to walk the dogs , I had a protein + veg lunch , will test again later . Thanks for the Advice ~~ Pre-Diet

Hi @PreDiet
42=6% which would mean average finger prick tests of around 7. This was the level I was diagnosed prediabetic 6 years ago just on the borderline.
Hello BeaglerHello friends, could I ask your advice please?
I finally got the machine and all the bits together and started testing, aiming for x7 daily, pre- & 2 hours post- meals (just for a few days). I am pre-diabetic, HbA1c was 6.4 last May, 6.2 October. Have been trying to reduce carbs to less than 100g a day. However, my results so far show 6.9 or 6.3 before breakfast, and 5.8 to 6.3 during the day, both before and 2 hours after meals. What can I do to reduce my pre-meal glucose levels? I know this is not an heroically high level but I am concerned as I originally went to my GP with recently numb feet (and severe athlete's foot for several years). The fungus has cleared up now I am oozing less sugar, but the numbness remains and I do NOT want to lose toes!
