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

[ianpspurs]

Averaging in the eights notwithstanding 17 hours each day fasting

Hi @BaliRob. I see you are insulin dependent so some dealing with their condition in a similar way may be better placed to judge where that's at. Longer term is that trending up. down or flat?

I've been away, so just updating. Up and down with the last 3 mornings being:

6.0, 4.6, 5.1

I was wondering recently if the high temperatures we’ve had may have affected the strips. I wished I hadn’t bought 10 boxes at a time.

On my Abbot and Accu-Chek trip containers max temps for storage are 30° C, and where I keep my spare boxes of strips in a cupboard with other spare medication stuff in my office stays around 26° all year round.

I‘m convinced our hot weather is affecting our readings!

Welcome to #Sunny Saturday. 5.5 fbg - does not please me personally but it seems as though I won't do any better just now. Hugely effective for weight loss though. @jayney27 have a great time on the beach with grandchildren. @ally1 back in the 7s by a nice margin - great work, @Goonergal usual well deserved exceptional fbg. @JanetMcDowell great result.

good morning all

4.4 today
