Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

Good morning comrades I had a few spells of bad cramps in my legs during the night so not sure if this has contributed to my higher readings this morning of 8.7 @ 7-30 :wacky:.
Wishing you all a great day:)

Hi Perry1960
When I was on cholesterol medication a few years ago my doctor told me to drink tonic water has it has quinine in it and this helps the cramps. I would check with your doctor or diabetic nurse first wouldn't want to advise wrongly. But it certainly helped me! K
 
95 is mg/dl , im in USA, our lingo is different sorry , i will be putting mg/dl- its a lancet poke blood reading read from test strip put into glucose meter.

That's great. 95 mg/dl is just over 5mmols and as an average outside the diabetic range.
