Excellent!
4.2 again
I'm 4.7 now 2 hours after a relatively high-carb breakfast. I peaked at 11.9 which is about what I expected. For the two days after they adjusted my doses in hospital I was sitting in the 6s and 7s. I started a new glargine pen a few days ago and also attached a new Libre sensor (it's reading correctly, I'm double checking with finger pricks). It's like I've gone back to the pre-insulin adjustment numbers. Maybe my body doesn't clear glargine/lantus as quickly as it's supposed to because of my other health problems and it's "stacking" over the days. I'm baffled. Edit: or maybe I'm cured! Alas I don't think that's possible for 3c and I still have peaks so probably not

Morning All. 6.1 after day of sparse safe food. Theres a lesson there!
@Pipp hope you feel better soon. @RosemaryJackson are you getting enough sodium? Also several deep breaths right down to your toes usually helps
Happy Tuesday everyone.

5.4 this morning. Liking that. Had to take pain killers last night but at least I got a better sleep. Been in pain for nigh on a week now so definitely think I have strained something, all I did was lean over the back of the chair to reach my "just out of reach" knitting bag. Think my body fought with my underwear and my underwear won. LOL.
