Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[GeoffersTaylor]

5.2 this morning.
However, my brother-in-law is visiting today so I predict BEER will feature prominently in my food diary. I suspect tomorrow's fasting BG reading won't be quite so benign!

Good morning, woke up early so tested and was 6.8 and when I got up over two hours later it was 5.3, confirming that I get the dawn phenomenon most mornings when I get up early for work. I am assuming this is a good thing in that my liver is reducing the 'fat' stored?
Apparently others have commented this can continue for 6 months?

Huge hugs @maureen5752 the thought of losing my sight terrifies me, really hoping your current problems are a temporary result of the op. Fingers crossed for you that it will improve, and quickly xxx

Thanks very much. Took cover of eye yesterday and everythink was floating around even microwave ! Felt so kiddy, Sight was worse, Terrible headaches still. Phoned hospital went back for check up, they were surprised, said I should see better, said see how goes in 4 weeks! But learnt that macular advances and retinpdthy after catarch op!!! Says about 1.4 yrs later but have to wait and see, still got bright rings and lines on othere eye now on this one, also found out I have scarring on left eye, didn't know that. To late now, can't see anythink close even phone using X15 magnyfier around my neck to help. Hopefully eye will improve soon, cataracha have to be done one day anyway, good day to you all X

Hi I understand how you must feel.
In the past 18 months I have had a trap in the left eye, pipe and valve in right eye. This week had cat op cancelled... pressure to high.
Yesterday numerous drops everything blurred.
I'm luck I can spot a bus when it arrives at the bus stop.

That's life now, glasses for close vision, going to be very difficult for many every day things now, anyway sorry for moaning, hope you get well soon, good health to everyone (hug)

Hi KimG, I just want to see the odd pound disappear as well seem to have come to a halt in the last 2 weeks, really not eating anything different.

Annoying isn't it? I still have 3.5lbs to lose by 2nd April for my nephew's wedding which will make 5 stone!

 

[KimG]

Everybody who meets that cat wants him! Not me it's the cat and he is not even mine

Ah cat-napping
