Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

[Clivethedrive]

8.4 this morning! Just didn't feel right all day yesterday, had a dull tummy ache and had to get up during the night 4 times! Bit better this morning.

Had the same feeling back in october it was cystitis hope you dont have that!! Get well soon:)

A solid 4.0 for me this morning. This followed an odd, and rather low day yesterday. I have no idea what I was mid-afternoon, as I strolled around M&S feeling decidedly off and low. I didn't have my kit with me, but as I felt off, I toddled off and had a café latte, which buoyed me up just fine.

Yesterday evening, I had a pretty much tried and tested evening meal, followed by berries and cream. I had my usual scores pre and post meal, but was 3.2 and 3.0 a couple of hours later. (What’s all that nonsense about!?) I had only tested because of feeling off in the afternoon. Anyway, as I felt absolutely fine, I gave that a decent ignoring, went to bed, and got up on 4.0 this morning. I think my liver may be on message these days.

Hopefully, normal service has been resumed.

It’s a horrid, blustery day here today. I may just pull up the metaphoric draw-bridge and stay indoors all day. Play nicely boys and girls.

Got the first bloods from the doc on 20th dec and got my meter yesterday (accu-check nano)

Here's my readings so far:

20/12/14. 19 (doctors)
23/12/14. 16 (doctors)
9/1/15 10.8 (pre meal)
9/1/15. 11.2 (post meal)
10/1/15. 10.5 (pre meal)

So going the right way

Well done @Disky that post meal rise was excellent. Keep it up and you will see your pre-meal levels dropping.

Jan, I'd rather be a bit high than too low. Humulin M3 insulin has a rapid and long lasting insulin mixed together so levels can drop even further whilst sleeping and didn't want less than 3 mmol/l.

My doctors surgery does a first call first served system on the day. Some appointments are pre booked but gone are the days of waiting days/weeks to see a GP. If you phone after 8.30 am you will be seen that day.
