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

It could be. Is your infection stressing you out, without you realising?
How many days do you have to take them?
When i was 6yr old with diabetic symptoms my gp resorted to giving me antibiotics and my thrush cleared up. How strange was that? My gp in the 70s hadnt heard of type2 in kids.
I don't think the infection is stressing me because it seems to have gone, but taking these bloody antibiotics is! I'm very tempted to stop, although I won't as I still have another 3 days to go, but I will be very glad indeed when they're finished.
I think the pollen's getting to me a bit too, as I have sore eyes and a cough each morning on waking. Today's a bit worse than normal, but that's probably because I spent all afternoon in the garden with a friend yesterday. We're surrounded by fields and farmland and, although I don't get hay fever, as such, I do find this part of the year a bit irritating on the old mucous membranes from time to time.
Still prefer it to living in London though!

Well, threw all my toys out of the pram - ham rolls, oppo ice cream, crisps. I think that I must pull myself together.

This morning 10.6

bedtime 12.4

So all that junk and it's better than yesterday when I was on a proper diet. Don't get it at all.

Back on the straight and narrow today.

Good morning,
7.2 this morning. (Going up from 5.2)
How to lower it down to below 5 or below 6?
Can someone advise me?
Thanks.
Took a mug of slow cooking oats at 8.00 p.m before going to bed.
Is it dawn syndrome?

Took 20 mg of Simvastatin together with a mug of oats.
