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

6.7 this morning , higher than for many months. Its been creeping up over the past few days . Can it be the calf cramps I'm getting in the night which I think are a result of me getting back into cycling? Nothing too dramatic you understand just a couple of miles as I'm trying to ease myself into being fitter. I'm feeling stronger and have more energy so its all a bit, well, unclear /confusing.....

Morning all. 7.2 at 7am. Was expecting higher due to eating sweet cake early evening yesterday whilst out to stop early signs of hypo but also took gliclizide/ metformin late at bedtime as 'forgotten to take with evening meal! A stressful/ confusing day!

I'm not able to understand is this high dosage..some of my frnds consume only 80mg..

Perhaps keep a diary to see what your day is like and look for patterns.
Also, have a look at the low carb threads.
For myself, I find that carbs are to be avoided and not too much protein from meat. A bit of cheese or a couple of nuts at about 10pm might help. I also walk a lot.
Take your time, it will come down.
 
7.6 this morning,4.8 last night no late night snacks,I'm following a lo carb diet, my bg numbers have improved from between 10 & 15 in a month to 5&6, and I've lost a stone in weight, could it be I'm eating my evening meal too late, we eat about 7.30 pm.
