10.7 this morning.
HbAC1 in March was 64. Very confused about units now for this. Previously was IRO 48.
Really struggling at moment to keep sugars down. Having a lot of outside stresses at the moment which are less than helpful. Also I'm finding 8WBSD stressful too.

this seems quite interesting, maybe you'll get more replies tomorrow morning :)

Just checked and mine was 5.4mmol at 9.30am

Mine usually varies from 5.0-7.5mmol, i like to be around 5-6mmol where possible so i was happy with that this morning :)
I live in Portugal and my reading was 5.9 this morning. I am struggling to get the balance of carbs right. Had potatoes last night with salmon and lots of veges. But I had to get up to have a snack at 1.30 am because my sugar was 4.6. I take injected insulin so I cannot take the chance of it dropping while I am asleep.

5.3 again...I'm amazed as my daughter treated me to an early Fsther's day and this is what I had:

3 glasses of champagne

2 full bars of hotel chocolate 100% Dominican Republic (70g in total)

Large lamb roast lunch

Large chicken evening meal followed by

2 bowls of strawbs with OPPO ice cream....

I mean this is about the only but biggest breach in nearly 10 weeks....but terrific FBGs
