Still fine Keesha!5.9 this morning. I believe just a small piece of snack late at night caused a surge in fbs.
No dessert. Leave til just before bed, only nibble to con your liver.I'm not sure what would qualify as a liver block. I ate 50g of a medium-soft cheese for dessert at 9pm, and went to bed at 10pm. I didn't test in the middle of the night, but when I have on previous occasions, my blood sugar is already too high at midnight-1am as well. Basically it seems to take forever to go down after dinner, and then starts going up at some point as well. I think I'll plan on waking up a few times tonight to see what's happening.
I was wondering abut liver dump myself - I've read about it but don't really know what it is. I'll be seeing my doctor in the next week or so, so I'll ask about it then. Thanks for your suggestion.Good morning @songbiredsan it has always puzzled me as well my friend I experiment every morning but cannot find the answer but I will,here is the question I did ask
ps It could be liver dump but my liver must be dumping every 5 minutes if it is

Google 'dawn phenomenon'. Some use a liver block at supper but 5.6 to 6.3 isn't a huge dump, in fact could be just your meter variant.
Thanks Callyandy ... I'm still learning about this T2D thing that crept up on me a few months ago ... well more like it hit me over the head like a club! Dawn Phenomenon & Liver Dump are new to me so I'm going on Google to learn more. Thanks againTo quote (ish) our clever @Liam1955 , this could be due to the Dawn Phenomenon, or Liver Dump. "Caused by the liver releasing stored glucose and dumping it into your blood stream to boost your energy levels. A lot of people get high fasting readings in the morning".
