The 3's is not in my comfort zone so had some coffee and tested again got 3,5 had a snack waited then another test and was up to 4.5 so happier now. were Libre readings but backed up by stabometer. I seem to get unexplained cycles of periods of highish and then lowish readings just one of those things I guess.

Dare not tell doc I get odd hypos or he might try to foist some sort of meter on me.

I should be so lucky. :)

4.8 on Libre and 5.2 on finger pick. Was a bit disappointed that it wasn't in lower 4s given it was fasting day yesterday but then I did sleep very late at around 2 last night...so perhaps it was the culprit. Good news is so far it is all within 6.5 so far

Morning All. Scraped in with 5.9 after Fishfinger Firsday so thats ok. @Ryhia good luck with the blood tests. @JohnEGreen hope that isnt too low for you, take care.
Thank you for the encouragement. They took a LARGE syringe of blood so they have plenty to play with.

Another nasty 9 this morning ( 5am ) not much sleep and a long day in work again so that might be affecting or effecting ( never sure which ) my bg .
