On waking my b.s. was 10. That was at 8.26am (a lay in ) off work at 1152 am it was still 10...I don't know what's happening...can vertigo and inner ear infection which I have not been given medication for cause b.s. to raise...or anything in your body make it go up as ac1 test again no diabetes at 40 mmls ..

Yup - infection in general can increase BS or just make it yo-yo, as can anti-biotics...may take a wee while to settle but not unusual. I'm coming to the conclusion that heat, cold, sun, rain, Tuesdays and a wide range of anything...impacts BS! Just keep drinking plenty of the right kind of fluid. Don't worry.

Hello Geoffers

Just looked at my meter and the average readings are as follows

Last 90 days 15.3

Last 30 days 11.4

Last 14 days 10.5

Last 7 days 9.8

I am pleased with this in fact I'm delighted

Had a couple of hypos thrown in this week which I don't want occurring on a regular basis

:);) Nice!

Hi - I'm still trying to get closer to 5.0 but I am getting there, like many others, by eating very few carbohydrates at all. If it's new to you..check out info on low carb diets.
