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

[DJC3]

I have had the strength and doseage of the paracetamol increased, so it could well be the cause of my higher readings. I will try and do with out them for a while and see if they are the problem.

Careful though - if you do without and you pain increases, that’ll put your bgs up too! What a minefield!
Good luck with trying to find your way through, its so frustrating.

I have not taking any this morning, if I do I will go back to the lower strength otc paracetamol I took before.

Would imagine it was blue top full cream

Ah that’s ok then!
I spent my working life in a hospital lab. I can’t tell you what ‘blue milk’ reminded me of but I’ve never drunk skimmed milk because of the blueish tinge which remind me of this particular sample we used to analyse.

@Shem S what’s blue milk?

I wondered what it was too and googled it:



But I think @bigjim19 is correct and it's full cream milk with the blue plastic caps on the containers.
