What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

strange 3.7 this morning but i feel fine, but on the really good side of things i had my Hba1c check on the 5th Feb and it came back this year after all my hard work in getting my weight off at 46mmol/mol finally into the pre diabetes range first time below 50 for about 5 years
 
Only 18.6 today.
Hello @Charlotte73 and welcome back to this FBG thread. We're pleased you could join us once again.

18.6 mmol/L! Is that all? That FBG reading is awfully high, as I think you realise. Please telephone your GP's surgery first thing tomorrow morning and ask for the earliest available appointment with your doctor. Don't wait for them to contact you. S/he may want to adjust your medication.

Once again, welcome
 
Blood prick, 6.5
replaced Dexcom last night and it’s as wonky as heck. I started off with a low glucose warning2.9…I knew there was no chance of that, fingerprick 6.9. As of right now I think it’s finally calmed down, I’ve calibrated a few times.
leg day at the gym this morning, some shopping , lunch and then a nice walk with hubby and pup. It’s a cool one but bright sunny skies and snow covering everything, a sweet winter wonderland.
 
Oh fiddle sticks. I knew I’d eaten too much albeit low carb and I‘d finished by 7pm FBG @ 7:25am 6.3 :rolleyes: I’ve had indigestion all night and my back pain is really bad. Going to ring admissions today see if I’m anywhere near being given a date :( feeling sorry for myself. I’ll take that hug thank you @DEBBIESCOTT

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone x
